This wonderful book actually attempts to make inclusion teaching sane. I would not have made it through my stint as an inclusion teacher in a middle school without it. Unfortunately, I didn’t find it until after Xmas; still it got me through the roughest part. General ed teachers hate inclusion without exception. They need this book, too, since they are for the most part out of the loop–that is, they know NADA about special ed kids. This book addresses that issue and so many other issues; it offers great ways to teach different subjects to these wonderful kids. Guess what!?! A lot of these teaching techniques worked well with regular kids, too.

This book gives all levels of teachers practical and ready to use ideas. Highly recommend this to all teachers involved with inclusion.

I am very impressed with this book. It has many useful tips for inclusion (it outlines a process for beginning inclusion) and has a variety of accommodations for different learners. Accommodations are helpfully organized by types of activities (reading, writing, math, general teaching strategies, tests, etc.), and most of the accommodations would also benefit non-disabled students. I also like the humerous cartoons and the quotations throughout the book. The reproducable forms at the back of the book are also very useful. As a new Special Education teacher I find it a great resource.

When I was told my daughter would be in an inclusion class, I didn’t know quite what that meant–and neither, it seemed, did the school. Her speech therapist slipped me a copy of this book and suggested I study up so I’d know what to look for and what to demand. As soon as I read it, I couldn’t wait to get my own copy. Inclusion seems to be the wave of the future in special education, and a book like this one can help everyone–parents, educators, administrators–get on the same page. Next time, I’ll be the one slipping it to somebody.

This book is one of the best that I have seen on inclusion. “450 Strategies for Success” gives a wealth of information on to how to actually put an inclusion program into place at a school. The book has real, practical strategies to put to use in your classroom. Also included are schedules that you can use to plan school days for your students. The tips for creating a positive environment to help every teacher help their students with special needs in the inclusion classroom are priceless. I’m ordering a copy for the teacher’s lounge at my school!
