Grade Level: Preschool - Third Grade
Price: $24.95
Product #: GH19652
Sample Pages

Qty:

 

All children in early childhood programs need nurturing and stimulating learning environments, but children with special needs may also require some modification of typical classroom experiences in order to thrive. These modifications can seem overwhelming to busy teachers who must decide whether the environment, the classroom equipment and materials, the activities themselves, or the expectations they have of the child must change.

This teaching resource book is written to help teachers look at classroom design in a new way and suggests different ways of approaching activities to help children with special needs become successful. By modifying the classroom and activities, all children will be actively engaged.

Each chapter focuses on either a learning center, such as art or science, or a time of the day, such as snack time or dismissal, with particular attention to the needs of children with special needs. The suggestions in each chapter will enable all children to learn by keeping them involved in developmentally appropriate routines and center-based activities.

Chapters include:

  • Overview
  • Circle Time
  • Art Center
  • Sand and Water Center
  • Block Center
  • Dramatic Play
  • Snack Time
  • Transitions
  • Fine Motor Center
  • Gross Motor Center

The six categories of special needs that are addressed in each chapter are:

  • Developmental Delays
  • Orthopedic Impairments
  • Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) and Autism
  • Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Behavioral Issues
  • Motor Planning Problems
  • Visual Impairments

Reviews
"This practical and thoughtful book describes in great detail ways for teachers to adjust their learning centers and classroom routines for children with special needs."

Testimonials

I am a stay at home mom who values education very much, and these resources have been able to help me start my child's education early in order to give her a head start before she even enters into school. - Heather L.

The resources I received will help me tremendously with reading skills. I was amazed at how quickly I received my order. - Annette H.

My son needed some additional work with his fine motor skills to prepare him for Kindergarten next year. We work out of the books I ordered. He does his "homework" when my older son is completing his after school. He loves it! It makes him feel like a big boy. I was amazed that my order arrived two days after I placed it, especially because it was the Holiday season. - Dawn M.

I purchased the full color Kindergarten file folder games, and my students love them. We use them daily during our literacy groups. Your service was great! - Cindy M.

They provide a variety of ways to reach different students and allow me to vary my activities year-to-year. - Staci M.

I have used all the materials with my Kdg. class and found them to be so appropriate. The children enjoy them. - Jennifer C.
