Teaching Language Arts Math and Science to Students with Significant Cognitive Disabilities

Under NCLB, students with severe disabilities are expected to make progress on state academic content standards in language arts, math, and science. But what material should educators teach from these three content areas, and how should they teach it? With this groundbreaking textbook, future educators will finally have the answers they need. The first major research-to-practice resource on this critical topic, this text goes beyond functional and access skills and shows educators how to make the general curriculum accessible to students of all ages with significant cognitive disabilities. Twenty-five of the best-known researchers in the field prepare educators toadapt lessons in language arts, math, and science for students with disabilitiesidentify meaningful instructional contentcreate effective learning environments through instructional procedures such as peer tutoring, cooperative learning, and co-teachingset appropriate expectations for student achievementalign instruction with state content standards and alternate assessment For each content area, future teachers will get a solid research foundation blended with teaching examples, guidelines, and helpful figures and tables. A timely textbook for preservice educators – and a valuable reference for in-service teachers seeking guidance – this important resource will raise expectations for students with disabilities and ensure their progress in key academic areas.Additional ISBNs1557667985, 1598575902, 9781557667984, 9781598575903, 1598573950, 9781598573954Teaching Language Arts, Math, and Science to Students with Significant Cognitive Disabilities 1st Edition is written by Browder, Diane; Spooner, Fred and published by Brookes Publishing.
