Synopsis :

Bridging the gap between child development and strategies for inclusion, this powerful volume will help early childhood practitioners and pre-service teachers feel better equipped to meet the needs of all the children in their early childhood setting. Each chapter introduces you to a child (ages birth to 8 years) with one or more special needs, including Autism, Cerebral Palsy, Turner Syndrome, ADHD, Emotional/Behavioral Disorders, Apraxia, Down Syndrome, Giftedness, and Juvenile Diabetes. Advocating a holistic view of working with children, each profile includes: A description of the child An interview with a family member or early childhood professional describing essential facts and historical incidents in the child’s life An epilogue updating the status of the child Information for educators about the special needs covered in the profile Hints for success—teaching strategies for working with children in inclusive classrooms Discussion questions for the classroom Resources for educators and parents Plus, an appendix with guidelines for an IEP (Individualized Education Program)
