Beschreibung

Educating learners with Down syndrome can seem daunting at first, but this practical guide for teachers and carers to using evidence-based practices shows you how.

Taking a unique lifespan, curriculum-based approach, Rhonda M. Faragher promotes the understanding that people with Down syndrome are a diverse group with vast potential and varied learning needs. The book covers core learning areas such as literacy, numeracy, mathematics, science, and the Humanities, and features key points from the research literature, teaching strategies, practitioner vignettes, and personal stories from people with Down syndrome. It considers learning from birth and early intervention, through primary and secondary school, to post-secondary education and into various contexts of adulthood.

Drawing on the latest research, this guide for educators is rich with strategies, as well as tips from other parents and teachers, providing an accessible and empowering resource for the delivery of quality education to benefit learners with Down syndrome.

'Not only will you be able to read a book that contains the latest information available on inclusive practices in education, but you will also get the perspective of people with Down syndrome, contributors to this book. This is a handbook on inclusion and inclusive education for educators and parents everywhere.'

Dr Claudia Moreira, Scientific Advisor on Down Syndrome Research, Brazil.

'This is a brilliant, much needed resource for both education professionals and parents. It's also great to hear from the learners themselves about what they think worked best for them.'
