Student Teaching in Your First Inclusive Classroom is an indispensable, practical, and comprehensive resource that addresses critical needs within teacher education programs. Preservice general educators in our program consistently ask for more training in and support for meeting the needs of students with disabilities in their classrooms, and creating environments that work for all of their students. I can’t wait to use this amazing book in my classes!
