Inspiring June 3, 2007 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
After reading this book I can only hope that I will be lucky enough to have a student with severe and multiple disabilities in my classroom some day. The book has a lot of practical ideas, simple and easy to use and at the same time there are a lot of references to actual research. This is a very inspiring book!
A great addition to any teacher's resource library! December 1, 2001 8 out of 8 found this review helpful
Dr. Downing does a wonderful job in this book of offering teachers practical information. She has a section devoted to each stage of education from preschool to high school & within each section offers specific tips on how to modify both the environment & the curriculum. She also addresses common concerns such as dealing with disruptive behavior & a lack of adequate planning time or support staff resources. A great addition to any teacher's resource library!
