From the Back Cover

Real students, with real IEPS<―>from start to finish.

Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Settings,4/e, continues to provide a practical introduction to teaching children with disabilities In the regular classroom. The Fourth Edition has been crafted to increase emphasis on the IEP process, by introducing preservice teachers to 14 students with disabilities and their teachers. Each of these students is profiled at the start of a chapter, and preservice teachers follow the teacher as they evaluate the student, write effective IEP goals and objectives, and modify instruction in a way that is appropriate for that particular student. In this way, students are prepared not only to engage in the IEP process themselves, but are reminded of the individualities among all students and the impact a teacher can have on their success in the classroom.

With teaching tips, sample IEP forms, and countless applications for today's classroom, this book will prepare your students for the ups and downs of teaching in a diverse classroom.
