Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems [with Enhanced eText Access Card]

by Sharon R. Vaughn, Candace S. Bos

Methods for working effectively with students who have learning and behavior problems
Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems prepares teachers to meet the needs of elementary and secondary students with learning and behavior problems in a variety of settings. The text builds foundation with information about general approaches to learning and teaching, then turns to specific content areas such as reading, math, oral and written expression, and social and study skills. The authors present information about classroom and behavior management, consultation, and collaboration with families and professionals so that beginning teachers can develop a plan of action for the school year and experienced teachers can refine these skills. The 10th Edition continues to include fresh ideas and information, and has been updated throughout to reflect the latest research on RTI and MTSS, classroom management, positive behavior support, and more.

Would have been 5 stars if I hadn’t gotten a B+ in my class and mold all over the book (don’t ask me how)

[Rod · Rating 4 out of 5]

useful

Each chapter ended with useful examples for teachers and administrators to utilize. Beneficial for all special education teachers who work with students with high incidence disabilities.

Very detailed breakdown of strategies and resources for the special education teacher

Do not pick up this book expecting to read it from cover to cover. It was the assigned text for my Instructional Interventions for Students with Disabilities masters course. It makes a great reference guide and I plan to keep it on my shelf and will be pulling it out when needed when I get a teaching position.

Here is a summary of the contents of the book, listed by chapter.
1. Planning and Teaching for Understanding - this is a kind of intro to special education, including information in IEPs. I suggest Exceptional Lives if you want more in depth information on this.
2. Approaches to Learning and Teaching - information on applied behavior analysis, cognitive strategy instruction, sociocultural theory and schema theory.
3. Response to Intervention
4. Promoting Social Acceptance and Managing Behavior - information on management and functional behavior assessments
5. Coteaching and Collaborating: Working with Professionals and Families - a very good section of the book including different models of coteaching

The last chapters list different strategies for different areas of instruction
6. Assessing and Teaching Oral Language
7. Assessing and Teaching Reading: Phonological Awareness, Phonics and Word Recognition
8. Assessing and Teaching Reading: Fluency and Comprehension
9. Assessing and Teaching Writing and Spelling
10. Assessing and Teaching Content Area Learning and Vocabulary Instruction
11. Assessing and Teaching Mathematics

This is exactly what I've been wanting for so long! It is a very comprehensive, practical guide for teaching kids with learning problems. It includes a ton of solid strategies--all based on the conclusions of extensive research, fantastic lists of the best resources, frameworks for lesson plans, and all the pertinent information that any expert should know about breaking down and teaching reading and writing. I don't think there is a single page in mine that isn't highlighted or earmarked to copy.

This book has innovative and creative techniques for assisting individuals with disabilities. The language was sometimes heavy on terms which weren't clearly defined and heaving on acronyms which would make this book hard for some individuals to use. This book is limited in the teachers it could be beneficial for.

[Jeannette · Rating 4 out of 5]

I've more skimmed through the pieces of this as I've needed them than read it in great detail, but it's got a lot of great strategies and information. I quite like it and I've used it for a resource more than once.

[Sara · Rating 5 out of 5]

This has been, by far, the best book I have read in graduate school. Psychology and practical classroom advice in one neat package!

[Jen · Rating 4 out of 5]

Nice collection of research based strategies.
