This book provides a practical resource for meeting the learning and behavior needs of special students who have disabilities or are considered high-risk learners and the teaching needs of those who teach them in the inclusive-setting classroom.

To create truly inclusive school and classroom environments, educators must be prepared to include all students--including students with intellectual disabilities, who are not always given the opportunity to be full participants in the classroom. This book provides an overview of the history of inclusion, the philosophy underlying inclusion, and the role that curriculum accommodations and modifications play in making inclusion possible. The author discusses four ways to modify curriculum for students working well below grade level: altering content, conceptual difficulty, educational goals, or instructional methods. She then provides 40 curriculum modification strategies, based on Robert Marzano's New Taxonomy of Educational Objectives, with directions for implementation and samples of student work.

Written by a special educator experienced in inclusion and in mentoring teachers, Inclusive Classroom offers proven strategies and practical guidance for building a successful inclusive program that welcomes and supports all students' learning needs.
