Publisher's Synopsis
For a course in multicultural special education.
Recognizing the number of children from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds is increasing dramatically, this is only text available that integrates both multicultural education and special education. This timely book helps future teachers, practicing teachers, aids, and paraprofessionals understand and accommodate children with disabilities or giftedness in a special education setting or in regular classroom settings. It examines changing instruction and adapting classroom climates, structures, and discipline to address the distinct work styles, views, values, language, and expectations of children from diverse backgrounds.
