Abstract
Teaching Students with Disabilities provides extensive Strategies and Activities for educators of students with special needs, ranging from Early Childhood through Elementary and Secondary School. Dr. Karen A. Waldron discusses her research and practice in Special Education Program and Curriculum Development, incorporating creative and expansive ideas of hundreds of teachers and administrators who collaborated within a Grant funded by the Texas Education Agency.
Chapters include information on ways to develop programs for students with disabilities, organize Planning Teams, modify Curricula and Materials, work together with parents as partners, and manage students with behavior problems. Numerous activities and strategies are presented to teach students with disorders in Perception, Language, Cognition, Memory, Hearing, Vision, and Motor areas.
This Handbook contains checklists of classroom behaviors that students might demonstrate if they are experiencing one or more areas of these disabilities. Additional Tables and Narrative include specific ways to teach students with each of these issues.
Additionally, steps in teaching Reading, Spelling, and Arithmetic to all students provide the framework for a General Education curriculum for Elementary Schools.
The purpose of this Handbook is to provide a venue for educators to insure that every student can experience success.
