Both practical and readable, this book will help you think of new ways to design your instruction with individual needs in mind, find new and creative ways to manage lab experiments so all your students will benefit, overcome fears of behavioral flare-ups in the classroom, and become more confident when working with your special education counterparts and the IEP team. Including Students With Disabilities in Advanced Science Classes starts by acquainting you with special education terms and laws and concludes with ways to approach end-of-year testing. In between, you receive straightforward guidance on real-life situations plus problem-solving strategies, behavior contracts for students, and workable ideas for you. As authors Lori A. Howard and Elizabeth A. Potts note, "there are often many things we cannot control in our classroom, but we can control our own behavior, which has a huge effect on the rest of the class."
