Summary:Abstract In this study, the main purpose is to review the teachers' statements regarding the link between the method WTR (Writing to Read) and inclusion of pupils with special needs. The research questions regarding this review are: - What factors in the WTR method do the teachers experience can affect the inclusion of children with special needs in a positive way? And - What factors in WTR method work do the teachers experience can affect the inclusion of children with special needs in a negative way? Five teachers from three different schools were interviewed. The following eight factors appeared positive for the inclusion of pupils with special needs: teachers’ expectations, social interaction, context close to the pupils, digital literacy, inclusion in the long term, working without the pen, to have success, and the teacher's time. The study also shows four factors that negatively affect the inclusion of pupils with special needs: to be slowed down by classmates, unstructured lessons, writing without a pencil, and technology malfunctions. In conclusion, all the teachers in the study felt that the method works for pupils with special needs, and can be called an inclusive method.
