"If you are searching for a book on differentiating instruction in your classroom for both general education students and students with learning disabilities, look no further. Between these pages you will find ample strategies of how to effectively and efficiently individualize instruction to a classroom of diverse learners, without having to spend countless hours before and after a lesson preparing and assessing." -- Jessica Purcell, Science Teacher "The ideas on differentiation presented in this book are wonderful! They are new, innovative, current, interesting, and very practical. I could easily implement some of these ideas in my classroom tomorrow!" -- Rachel Aherns, Science Teacher "I found the chapters easy to read as well as easy to return to and locate information you wanted to return to. Each chapter had examples for the reader that were relevant to the topic and things that a teacher could see using in the classroom. It was an excellent review for me, so I think veteran teachers will benefit from the book." -- Dana Leonard, Life Skills Exceptional Children's Teacher
