5.0 out of 5 starsGreat strategies for teaching Language Arts in an inclusive classroom
By Z Hayes HALL OF FAMETOP 50 REVIEWER on October 19, 2009
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
Teaching middle school students can present its own set of challenges and given that most of the classrooms these days are inclusive, this presents quite an undertaking for teachers who wish to reach out to all their students and take into consideration the diverse needs of the students, in terms of learning styles, communication styles, skills level etc. "Differentiated Instruction for the Middle School Language Arts Teacher" presents a host of practical activities and strategies that can be used in an inclusive classroom.

The book is divided into two parts. Part One: Being Successful in the Inclusive Classroom addresses issues such as collaboration (for intervention, with the Child Study Team, with the school team, and with parents/families); determining learning styles to differentiate instruction; and, effective teaching strategies in an inclusive classroom, including alternative assessment methods.

Part Two: Language Arts activities for the inclusive middle school classroom offers specific activities that can be carried out in an inclusive Language Arts classroom, and these activities are in alignment with national content standards. Every activity has a list of required materials listed, and instructions on how the activity is to be carried out. Each activity also has a worksheet included which is reproducible. At the end of each activity, there is a segment titled "How to Adapt this lesson for an Inclusive Classroom" which has strategies for learning disabled students, resistant learners and students with ADD/ADHD, for students with fine motor weaknesses, and also for gifted learners, and the rest of the class.Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 starsThey did it again
By Anne Gunar on February 10, 2009
Format: Paperback
Just when I thought that Joan and Kate had to have run out of learning strategies, they've come up with new ones-this time for language arts. What's so special about the activities in this book is that they are geared towards the interests of middle school students in the 21st century, while teaching them effective writing tools that will help them become better writers and students. This book is a "must have" for teachers wishing to creatively engage their students in all aspects of the writing process. I can't wait to see Joan and Kate's next book. It seems that there is no end to their ability to continuously create new and exciting learning strategies.

5.0 out of 5 starsIt doesn't get any better!
By M. Kenwood on March 2, 2010
Format: Paperback
I wish the teachers could have known how to make learning this much fun when I was in school. Perhaps Amazon should send a copy to each senator and congressperson as ideas to be implemented by local boards of education.

By ET MUSIC on April 7, 2009
Format: Paperback
This book is well written & well thought out! I have been able to implement so many of these strategies in my classroom. I love the fact that it is geared specifically to work with middle school aged children. This book is a must have for teachers that now have to deal with the inclusive environment! I would highly suggest this!!!
