Imagine you have a reasonable budget (not unlimited) and willing school administrators. How will you engage families? How will you be inclusive of children with exceptionalities? This project is meant to synthesize all of your learning in this class and put it to use in a practical way. There are two parts to this assignment.&nbsp; Please complete and submit both parts of this assignment in Canvas and also to your Folio.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><strong style=\"font-weight: bold; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">Part 1: Artifact Creation<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 12px 0px; font-size: 16px; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">For this assignment, you will create the actual item(s) that you would send out to families as a means to engage them.
