Making the Grade: Promoting Positive Outcomes for Students with Learning Disabilities navigates the reader through the world of special education. The book contains a compilation of best practices in special education, some of which educators may not know or be unsure of, while others are good reminders. The authors provide the reader with the knowledge, skills, and determination to produce positive outcomes for students with learning disabilities. -- Aimee Dalenta, Grade 3 Inclusion Teacher, Washington Street School, Springfield, Massachusetts This book addresses critical, but often overlooked, practices that produce positive outcomes for students with learning disabilities. The authors take you on a journey from the pre-referral process to writing IEP's, from advocacy and collaboration with the family to the post-secondary transition. In between are chapters on evidence-based best practices, social-emotional learning and the inclusion of paraprofessionals all meant to provide a complete picture of how best to meet the needs of student with learning disabilities. -- Elizabeth Jean Ed.D, professor, Van Loan School of Education, Endicott College, Beverly, MA Making the Grade: Promoting Positive Outcomes for Students with Learning Disabilities clearly lays out what school districts, schools, administrators and educators need to provide in terms of services, instructional models, and collaborative learning environments to meet the needs of students with disabilities. The book begins with an explanation of law and a look at this special population and ends with the transition to post-secondary institutions. Most of all, the book supports the wealth of existing research focused on achieving positive outcomes for students. -- Martha H. von Mering, executive officer of special education & related services, Springfield Public Schools, Springfield, MA Students with learning disabilities have great potential to succeed in academic settings, but often get lost when an educator does not know how best to help. Making the Grade: Promoting Positive Outcomes for Students with Learning Disabilities gives educators all the tools necessary to make learning possible, from pre-referral to post-secondary transitions. Understanding how to write the IEP or 504, using evidence-based strategies and Universal Design for Learning all set the stage for student success. -- Teresa Allissa Citro, Chief Executive Officer, Learning Disabilities Worldwide, Waltham, MA
