For students taking courses in early childhood special education. A
practical, activity-based approach to early childhood special
education built on a foundation of theory and research. This
comprehensive text on early childhood special education emphasizes
a developmental focus over a disability focus. The authors believe
that children are more alike than different in their developmental
processes and avoids the negative impact of labeling children with
disability categorical names. The authors have produced a book that
offers educators a practical and effective guide to finding
learning opportunities within daily curriculum activities and
routine. The current edition maintains the focus on inclusive,
family-centered, real-world approaches that are also theoretically
based. The text also provides ample detail related to specific
intervention strategies that enhance teachers' ability to work with
young children with special needs and their families. Readable and
practical, the illustrations of techniques and strategies
throughout make this text a valuable resource long after students
leave their formal education.
Adapting Early Childhood Curricula for Children with Disabilities
and Special Needs uses a developmental focus, rather than a
disability orientation, to discuss typical and atypical child
development and curricular adaptations. The integrated,
non-categorical approach assumes that children are more alike than
different in their development. The inclusive focus assumes that
attitudes, environments, and intervention strategies can be adapted
so that all young children with disabilities or other special needs
can be included. An essential text for today, and a valuable
resource to take into the classroom tomorrow, this practical guide
provides daily activities, evidence-based how-to strategies, and
realistic lesson modifications that help facilitate truly inclusive
classrooms. Aspiring educators will also learn to develop their
collaboration and problem-solving skills to effectively work with
families, colleagues, and paraprofessionals in supporting every
child's positive development. The 10th Edition is updated to
include enhanced discussions on working with families, children,
and professionals of diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds
and lifestyles; new tips for integrating Division for Early
Childhood Recommended Practices; updated requirements for writing
IEP goals and recommendations; and more.
Essential Elements in Early Intervention is a complete sourcebooks
and guide for early interventionists, teachers of students with
visual impairments, and other professionals who work with young
children with visual impairments, dual sensory impairments, and
multiple disabilities. It includes comprehensive information on
vision and hearing examinations, functional vision and hearing
assessments, and effective methods of providing early intervention
services. The new edition includes expanded, updated information on
federal special education legislation, best practices in early
intervention, evidence-based outcomes, and the role of the early
interventionist, as well as strategies for working with families
and educational teams successfully.
