Adapting early childhood curricula for children with special needs / Ruth E. Cook, M. Diane Klein, Deborah Chen.
Cook (Santa Clara U.) et al. provide early childhood and special education students with a text on working with young children with special needs. They emphasize understanding how all young children learn, the context of the family, the developmental domains, and the growth areas and individual and family background factors involved. They focus on activity and play-based approaches to intervention, the integration of goals and objectives for all developmental domains in inclusive, community-based settings, and ways to work collaboratively with others. This edition has vignettes, updated legal requirements related to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act and response-to-intervention, more on evidence-based practices and embedding interventions in daily activities, a new chapter on children with complex learning needs, consideration of universal design for learning, and more on language intervention strategies and specific disabilities like autism.
