Introduction

Teaching Children with Special Needs: Inclusive Strategies for Meeting Individual Needs contains a collection of articles by experienced practitioners on different individual special needs, offering comprehensive information and useable guidance on inclusive classroom strategies.

Summary of contents

Each chapter offers very clear practical strategies that can be tried in a classroom without further training or expensive resources, as well as helpful references and web links to enable further research, if required. This book will provide practitioners with the knowledge they need to be able to create an inclusive learning environment for all of their pupils.

Frequently parents, carers and the pupil himself will know so much about the individual need that, whilst you can learn from them, your lack of knowledge does not always enable you to offer the pupil the best, most professional support immediately. This book will provide the class teacher and the school with the knowledge about whether their general ‘good practice’ will provide the care and educational access that a pupil will require and also provide direction if additional or different resources or practice is necessary.
 
For quick access to information about a particular specific special educational need, the editor has ordered each chapter in alphabetical order, according to the individual need. There is also a list of abbreviations used in the book and an index at the back of the book.
