by Jim Peirson
Helping children with special needs reach their full potential has been the lifework of Jim Pierson. Now, with this book, he shares his knowledge so that you can become the exceptional teacher.
Since a national count began in 1976, the number of students in special education has grown by 51 percent, to a total of 11 percent of the public school population. With the right information, and with administrative support, you can easily meet the needs of these children.
This book will enable you. Pierson explains the characteristics of seventy-seven diagnoses so that you can identify the challenges, learn how to approach that child, know what teaching and discipline methods work best, and understand what you can expect that child to accomplish.
