Summary |
"This practical guide gives teachers the ideas they need to adapt instruction for the students in their classes. With over 1,000 suggestions for modifying lessons based on a student's abilities and disabilities, this guide will become a trusted reference. Based on current research findings and fresh insights from outstanding teachers, several themes are stressed and incorporated into many of the corrective strategies to expand skills and prepare students for real-world functioning: differentiation, tactics for organizing and presenting information, effective Internet use, social skills enhancement, and increased peer-mediated learning."--BOOK JACKET |
