A propos du livre

Revue de presse :

From Students:

 “Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Classrooms sets you up for success.  It reads like a book rather than a text book. The information flows from page to page. It kept my attention longer than my current textbook.” 

Jordan Seitz, Northern Michigan University

 

 “I truly felt that the ADAPT in Action and ADAPT Framework features was helpful. ADAPT enabled me to picture what was described in the scenarios so that I personally felt faced with the challenge.  I will hold onto this book because I feel it holds a lot of information that will be useful to me as a future teacher.  I can see myself looking back through the book to find strategies.” 

Jessa Dawn Maraccini, Northern Michigan University

"The APAPT feature will help my students."

Dr. Carl L. Lawson, Sr., Chicago State University

Kathy McMahon Klosterman, Miami University

 

“ADAPT builds an excellent foundation.”

Jenice Demes, University of Texas - San Antonio

 

“The overall organization of the chapters was great and I loved the weaving of the ADAPT framework throughout.”

Dan Fennerty, Central Washington University

 

"This book provides specific strategies for assessment that can be used by classroom teachers.  [It also] provides specific strategies for reading aspects based on latest research."

Elaine Fine, Montclair State University

 

"The ADAPT model concept is presented in an understandable and adaptable format so that teachers can easily implement it into their classroom management plan. It will help all the children in the classroom as well as those who do need redirection of behaviors."

Kay C. Reeves, Ed.D, The University of Memphis

 

 

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Prepare and inspire teachers to ADAPT to the needs of all their students!  Using the research-validated A-D-A-P-T model as an instructional guide, problem-solving approach and mnemonic, this new book clearly promotes the thoughtful practices and adaptations which have been proven as the most effective means to teach hard-to-reach students.  It inspires classroom teachers to want to meet the challenges of students with disabilities and other learning challenges in their classroom and then gives them the tools to do it confidently.

• ADAPT in Action is an illustrative section integrated directly within the book discussion, applying the ADAPT framework to the student and teacher introduced in the Opening Challenge case studies. In these features, the teacher “thinks out loud” using the ADAPT framework
• ADAPT Framework boxes provide a helpful summary chart that applies the ADAPT model to practical, frequently encountered teaching and learning topics

• What Works features present key research-to-practice findings or interesting, classroom-based statistics that are relevant to topics within each chapter
• Working Together features provide practical advice for how an idea or concept can be taught using a collaborative approach involving other school professionals and/or family members
• Instructional Activities, included in each of the “content area” chapters (10-13), present sample lessons for teaching skills in each area.
