Check out Mangomon - They just won a BESSIE award for best educational software for students with special needs. They also have free teacher resources including learning games and interactive vocational and occupational flashcards as well as an excellent blog.

I know it has been awhile since your posts, but thank you for this list of communities for special educators.  It was very helpful to me!

I have noticed that many of us on Classroom 2.0 work with special needs students. I found this interesting article from Best Online Colleges - Myths about Special Education Costs. It is very informative and an interesting take on the subject. I think those of you who work with special needs students will appreciate the attempt to "debunk" the myths about it. I find working in special education is extremely rewarding although challenging.
