From Students:
“Teaching Students with Special Needs in Inclusive Classrooms sets you up for success. It reads like a book rather than a text book. The information flows from page to page. It kept my attention longer than my current textbook.”
Jordan Seitz, Northern Michigan University
“I truly felt that the ADAPT in Action and ADAPT Framework features was helpful. ADAPT enabled me to picture what was described in the scenarios so that I personally felt faced with the challenge. I will hold onto this book because I feel it holds a lot of information that will be useful to me as a future teacher. I can see myself looking back through the book to find strategies.”
