Description

An exceptional work for teaching the exceptional child, this book offers students and professionals an advantageous resource in providing young children with developmental disabilities with high quality educational programs. The book combines the research, experience, and talent of the experts with real-life perspectives, written by parents of children with disabilities and of those typically developing. Using the NAEYC guidelines for developmentally appropriate practice as a foundation for programs for all young children, it expands upon the inclusion approach to promote successful learning environments for children with developmental disabilities. Proven recommendations for practical application, as well as a problem-solving framework for dealing with challenging behavior are advised in an appropriate manner. A color insert describing varying developmental domains provides a quick, yet thorough summary. Increased discussions of cultural, racial, and linguistic diversity, as well as updates on the most recent findings in neuroscience relevant to very young children, and internet-based resources have also been added to this edition. As a well written, discerning text, "The Exceptional Child: Inclusion in Early Childhood Education" is an invaluable complement to the educational endeavors of all those in the profession.
