In My Own Words: People With Down Syndrome is a blog dedicated to sharing the stories, reflections, and perspectives of people with Down syndrome, as expressed in interviews.
Sharing this great oldie in honor of National Down Syndrome Awareness Month! Have a listen to Sam’s 7th grade history rap from Franklin Middle School in Wheaton, Illinois. Proof that inclusion rocks! We can’t share this without shout-outs to Mr. Gordon, Sam’s phenomenal aide; to his fabulous history teacher, Mr. Bonnamy; and to Julia Shaw, the talented classmate who sings the solos. Enjoy!
