Praise for the companion volume for grades K-5:'A great resource for new teachers and veterans . . . full of tips and ideas that any teacher can use to prevent problems from occurring. Should be in every special education classroom.' ùTherese Kwiatkowski, Director of Special Education, Cooperative Educational Service Agency 'As a former special education teacher, I highly recommend this book for all those who want to be more effective in every aspect of their work. All of the special education teachers at my school will have copies of this practical guide.'ùMarybeth Sandvig, Principal, Manitoba K-8 School, Milwaukee, WI This practical guide is for novice special education teachers or for experienced teachers who are new to special education.áThe authorsácover some of the most critical challenges these teachers face, including specially designed instruction, legal responsibilities, positive behavioral supports, and working with co-teachers, teacher assistants, families, support staff, administrators, and others within the school community.This useful book offers 80 clear, concise, well-organized, teacher-tested, and easy-to-access strategies, each involving five or fewer points and none requiring extensive pre-planning prior to implementation. Ideas are presented in a no-nonsense format designed to help the special educator feel competent, organized, and well prepared. There are no statistics, theories, or in-depth literature reviews, but special education teachers can count on finding a clear-sighted focus on shaping the structure of their teaching day to ensure that learners with special needs, as well as general education learners, succeed in their classrooms.

Recenzii

"Uses humor while providing straight forward suggestions for the new teacher. User friendly with pertinent information and resources for the new teacher."
"As I read, I kept thinking to myself just how appropriate the title was. The book is a compilation of just what it says—common-sense solutions and suggestions. I liked the chapter titles because I knew exactly what would be in each chapter."
"Teachers will love the straight forward, practical information. The topics and strategies are excellent."
"Practical information is presented in a clear-cut, easy-to-read format."
"Provides great insight for developing and organizing your overall daily routine, planning, and teaching."
"Reflects what I've experienced in my co-teaching with three different experienced special education teachers. Reading the chapters on 'Legal Issues' and 'Working with Support Staff' gave me a new appreciation for the amount of out-of-classroom activities for which a special education teacher is responsible."
"Serves as a good resource for the teacher who may be struggling with an aspect of classroom management and is seeking new strategies."
"The authors' ability to collaboratively pinpoint current classroom issues and offer direct problem-solving approaches is impressive. This easy-to-implement resource with its organized chapter outlines and well-crafted format are flexible and adaptable to any grade, subject, or ability level. Abounds with suggestions to assist the educator in creating a positive classroom atmosphere."
"A valuable reference for any special education teacher. With a focus on classroom management, the guide covers all aspects of teaching from paperwork to professional relationships. New and veteran teachers will find useful tips and indispensable resources to improve their practice and enrich their learning."
