But there's no doubt that our girl is getting something from her classmates.
Yesterday morning, as we were
"Nanny nanny boo boo, you can't catch me!"
Ha!
If those aren't the words of a five-year-old, I don't know what is.
Remember, inclusive practices aren't about being exactly where the other kids are academically. That she's not. But she's learning and excited and having fun and we're just fine with that for today.

Just wait until she comes home saying, "Oooh, I'm tellin'!" Nanny nanny boo boo...LMAO
That's such a great point. Developmental stages aren't just academic and intellectual; they're also cultural. Five year olds have a culture. Fifteen year olds have a culture. Even if children with learning differences might not be able to meet their peers at an academic or intellectual level, they can still participate in "kid culture". And that's pretty fantastic.
