This book is a good combination of the practical - i.e., how to teach students with differing levels of disability - and the theoretical - i.e., what the research shows works for these students. The book focuses on literacy instruction for students with disabilities within inclusive settings. Little has been written about this important topic. The book provides strategies and examples of implementing research-based effective practices within inclusive settings. First, it will focus on literacy instruction for all students, including those with severe cognitive disabilities. Second, it will incorporate the six key components of effective literacy instruction identified by the Reading First Initiative (phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, text comprehension, and oral language) throughout the book, providing teachers with practical ways to incorporate these into daily instruction.
