Differentiating Language Arts Instruction for Students With Special Needs in Inclusive Settings, Grades K-5

Aligned with state and national standards, including California's K-12 Academic Content Standards, New York's State Learning Standards, and the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS), this book was developed to assist K-5 teachers with teaching English/Language Arts content to students with disabilities. Teachers are provided 90 instructional outlines in the specific skill areas of Reading (word identification, comprehension), Written Expression (prewriting, writing, post writing), and Oral Language (listening, speaking). The strategies and supports will allow many students with disabilities to participate in the instructional program offered in general education programs, including a greater potential for academic success on state mandated assessments.
