The University of Maine - Center for Community Inclusion and Disability Studies - Growing Ideas Tipsheets and Resources for Guiding Early Childhood Practices

This collection of resources was developed based on current evidence that quality inclusive care and education can only happen if there is a foundation of high-quality, regular education practices (Sandall & Schwartz, 2008). These materials offer early childhood and school age care professionals information on a variety of topics in the form of tipsheets, resource pages, and an expanded virtual toolkit. Each tipsheet is designed to be a starting point, providing basic topical information and pointing the reader to some of the best sources of extended information on the topic. The Growing Ideas virtual toolkit offers a professional development activity and featured resources for individual or group training or to share with parents and others.
