• Sommario/riassunto: For students working below grade level, curricular modifications can provide equal and meaningful opportunities to learn alongside their same-age peers. This book guides educators on how to modify the curriculum for students with intellectual disabilities participating in the general education classroom, providing 40 strategies that demonstrate how to alter the materials or objectives of a lesson. After introducing the reader to the benefits of inclusive education and to the basics of educating students with intellectual disabilities, the book describes how to design appropriate curricular modifications. Each of the following chapters then presents ten strategies for modifying lessons for Kindergarten through high school in four subject areas: math, English, science, and social studies. Vignettes demonstrate how to implement the strategies for modifying the curriculum in the classroom. A section of printable forms supporting the strategies are included. --
