Synopsis

This comprehensive guidebook shows teachers how to implement high-quality evidence-based interactive reading lessons for children with extensive support needs. It features step-by-step instructions for developing, implementing, and assessing shared reading lessons that are meaningful, engaging, and supportive of this population’s needs across cognitive, sensory, physical, and behavioral domains. Featuring templates to help readers organize critical information needed to plan and implement each lesson, as well as sample assessments to help identify learner interests, identify baseline skills, and monitor progress, the book is both practical and widely applicable across grade bands and curricula. Interactive Reading for Learners with Extensive Support Needs is key reading for teachers and literacy coaches who work with children with complex support needs, as well as faculty in personnel preparation programs in the areas of sensory disabilities, severe disabilities, and special education.
