Strategies for Teaching Students with Learning and Behavior Problems, 10th Edition

Special education teachers spend their days adapting instruction for students with learning and behavior problems, and Candace Bos and Sharon Vaughn wrote this textbook to help them do it. The 10th edition was published by Pearson Education in 2019.

Its subject is special education, with the emphasis on practical teaching strategies. The book deals with behavioral, emotional and social disabilities, and it also covers professional development for the educators who work with these students.

Teaching across different needs

Students with learning disabilities and students with behavior problems often share a classroom, and their needs overlap. The book addresses both groups, looking at behavioral, emotional and social disabilities and how teachers can plan around them.

Growing as an educator

Professional development is part of the coverage. That makes the book useful beyond the first methods course, for teachers who are already in classrooms and want to keep improving their practice.

Who it is for

The text is aimed at adult and further education students studying special education and learning disabilities, which in practice means teacher preparation programs. It is a 448-page trade paperback in English. Readers studying learning disabilities will find the strategies grounded in classroom teaching.
