DESCRIPTION
Teachers in inclusive classrooms regularly face the difficult task of having to modify the curriculum to reach all of their students, many of whom have special needs. There will be different categories of learners with special needs in a classroom including gifted students, students with average abilities and students with disabilities-whether physical, emotional, or cognitive. These different categories of students respond to the curriculum differently. This book provides a good description of the special educational needs of different categories of students. The challenges confronted by special education teachers and specific strategies they have to develop to help the students are described elaborately. It is hoped that this work will serve as a highly beneficial reference tool for teachers, counselors, school administers, parents and child care-givers.
