How to be a Better Teacher – A Practical Guide on Inclusive Education
$ 15
This book outlines the basic framework of the Eduplex model for inclusion. It can be employed by any mainstream school, regardless of the specific needs of the learners it serves. Each chapter provide
...
s expert practical tips and guidance, and concludes with a practical assignment that helps put theory into practice.To truly engage with every individual, it is important for teachers to understand that HOW they teach is as important as WHAT they teach. Inclusive teaching in a mainstream school involves much more than meets the eye. “How to be a better teacher – a practical guide for inclusive teaching and classroom strategies in a mainstream school” revisits inclusive teaching strategies to examine how successful teachers apply important elements of an inclusive classroom environment and manage the interaction of these principles to create meaningful relationships with each child. Topics in this book include:
Technology in the classroom
Multi-level teaching in a classroom
Classroom activities, and many more
An inclusive classroom environment ensures that all children feel affirmed, engaged, and supported by their teachers – although they all have different needs and expectations. The nature and benefits of inclusive education Inclusive education is an informal way of describing the practice of including learners with specific needs in regular classrooms and giving them exactly the same opportunities as any other learner to enjoy every aspect of the school experience, from academics to socialisation.Research shows that inclusion is beneficial for all learners – not only those who require additional educational support. These benefits include:
Classroom lessons that are tailored to the needs of all learners because inclusive education makes use of differentiated teaching instruction;
Making differences less “different”, which fosters empathy and builds friendships amongst learners with different abilities; and
Creating high expectations for all persons involved in the learning process.

Promote Language and Listening Skills
$ 15
It is a well-recognized fact that
hearing is critical to the development of speech, language and listening
skills. Once hearing loss is identified and a child is fitted with appropriate
hearing dev
...
ices, intervention is recommended to promote the development of
speech, language, and listening. Children with hearing loss are often
referred to a speech and language therapist to develop speech, language and
listening skills. Speech and language therapists are, however, not always
available, and a weekly session at a therapist alone is not sufficient to
develop these skills. Family members and caregivers play a critical role in the
development of a child's speech, language and listening skills, as they
interact with the child daily. Regardless of whether there is regular access to
speech-language therapy, there is much that parents and family members can do
at home to develop these skills.
This
book is intended to give parents, caregivers, and family members ideas for fun
activities which you and your child can do to stimulate language development
and listening at home. This book is divided into twelve lessons and each lesson
contains a parent article, language and listening activities and a parent
feedback sheet. Activities are selected to form part of your daily routine, and
therefore no additional time is needed to perform them. Guidelines are also
provided to make inexpensive toys with everyday items. It further includes
information on the importance of music for language and listening development.
