Tenet: Embedded Systematic Instruction: The Integration of Academic, Social and Functional Skills
In my opinion, I believe that embedded instruction is the most important educational tenet for mostly any child. Embedded Systemic Instruction means that you are taking functional skills and academic skills, and teaching the procedure of how to complete these skills in the natural environment of the classroom. Instead of having a bathrooming "lesson", you provide that instructional material during the actual bathrooming activity. Social and emotional well-being are integrated into the educational structure of the classroom, and students learn the necessary skills without having "specific lessons" on those skills. This method of education also allows itself to follow or adapt to a student's needs. If you are helping a student eat at lunch who is having a bad day, you can console and soothe the student while still continuing the procedure you already started. It makes the education feel natural, and once you create a classroom schedule, following that schedule creates a rhythm of expected events that many students with special needs require to feel safe and at ease.
