Praise forCo–Teaching in the Differentiated Classroom

"A must for all teachers who care about meeting the needs of every student; I wish I had had this book when I was a junior high school teacher. Highly practical, it considers the real lives and demands upon teachers in terms of federal, state, and local standards and expectations across the curriculum. Graphs, lesson plans, charts, and anecdotal examples cover everything thoroughly and realistically from how to get started reforming a school to working with parents."
Susan G. Bennett, director, Redwood Writing Project and chair of the English Department, Humboldt State University

"This book is an excellent guide for educators to use to enhance collaboration skills and learn the basics of differentiated instruction."
David A. Ellerd, Ph.D., Professor of Special Education, Humboldt State University
