Special Needs

Empowering teachers to support students with dyslexia, the book explores tools such as text-to-speech apps, speech-to-text solutions, audio-assisted reading, headphones for focus, lesson recordings, and AI integration. These strategies address diverse needs, enhance literacy, and drive school improvement.

As co-teaching becomes more commonplace, there is a need for change. This book walks educators through building relationships and creating an accord between co-teachers. Using a blend of research-based co-teaching strategies and cutting-edge instructional practices, teachers can learn to prepare their students to be lifelong learners in a dynamic world.
