Revised edition focuses on a whole school approach that positions students as the centerpiece of educational decision-making, and reinforces both the need for and the way to ensuring all students have full access to the entire general education curriculum. Excellent stand-alone resource for teachers and staff developers.

This book supports the implementation of inclusive practices by presenting the following:

  • a definition and description of the inclusive practice,
  • the relationship of the practice to IDEA and NCLB,
  • "best practices," based upon experience and current research,
  • roles for school personnel, administrators, related services providers, and clinicians,
  • roles for parents,
  • discussion of interventions with major focus on RTI and PBIS
  • "black line" masters for use in staff development activities, or by teachers to help structure inclusive classrooms,
  • references for additional treatment about each topic,
  • additional information about resources, organizations, videos, web sites, and
  • a glossary.

Although designed to serve as a hands-on free-standing resource, the book is complimented by the companion video (also available section below). Including IEP development, collaboration, differentiated classrooms, curricular adaptations, supplementary aids & services, and more.
