Recenzii

"Inclusion is more than just placing students with needs into regular education classrooms. This book is the necessary piece to including all students successfully in the learning and living classroom. The information, planning, and questioning will help all schools develop the tools necessary to reach all students."
"This is the first time I have seen a book about actually coaching principals, teacher leaders and others to become coaches of co-teaching. Great idea. Excellent addition to the field. The author has excellent first-hand experiences with co-teaching information."
"The fact that this book emphasizes coaching is what makes it different. Coaching is the buzz right now in education and the book's focus on coaching makes it unique."
"This book rocks!!! Easy to use strategies so inclusion can rock anywhere."
