Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems

Methods for working effectively with students who have learning and behavior problems
Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems prepares teachers to meet the needs of elementary and secondary students with learning and behavior problems in a variety of settings.

The authors present information about classroom and behavior management, consultation, and collaboration with families and professionals so that beginning teachers can develop a plan of action for the school year and experienced teachers can refine these skills.
