Writing for both general education and special education practitioners, the three authors incorporate information from both early childhood education and early childhood special education, fields which have only come together in the last decade or so to the mutual benefit of both. They focus on developmentally appropriate practice while examining such topics as assessment of curriculum programs; materials, learning centers, and integrated thematic units; and guiding of behavior.

Young Children With Special Needs: A Developmentally Appropriate Approach

Pro.ed

Throughout the ages, Sol, our sun, has nurtured life on this planet, Earth. But what happens when the sun's rays turn from nurturing to devastating?  The sun is at the height of its 11-year cycle of activity but this time it is not only unusually active, but there is an unknown, nearly invisible gas that is simultaneously crossing the solar system. This massive gas of undetermined origin and makeup serves to greatly magnify this radiation as it heads toward earth. The effect? All life on this planet is suddenly in danger and survival of any kind becomes questionable. Any unprotected plant or animal life succumbs to the sun's devastating rays. Soon, there isn't even enough to eat. Civilization, as we know it, is turned into a terrible chaos. Survival becomes a matter of protecting one's family from, perhaps man's greatest enemy, his own neighbors. As millions across the world struggle daily to live another day, a small group of brave families hunker down in Dr. Toomey's well-designed underground fortress. These pioneers have been hand-picked by the Doctor and must face the challenges of living secretly in their small underground community. The group remarkably maintains some of the same benefits of modern living that they enjoyed before the disaster. They enjoy a small library, as well as a school and have a workout room, an infirmary and even a lounge. Each family has private motel room-like quarters for privacy and all have assigned duties that keeps their society functioning. The group even maintains a sizeable garden to grow their own food and has goats and chickens for fresh eggs and milk. But soon, circumstances force members of the group to venture into town and face the uncertainties of the outside world. In town a variety of great surprises await them. They meet other survivors who share their tales of horror and meet other unlikely heroes who prove that they can greatly benefit the group.  Once back at the compound, the pioneers' underground sec

Sean Contessa and Maria Simone, two college interns expecting to complete their college schoolwork and return home for the summer, now have their hands full in a way in which few others can relate. They find themselves lost in the Peruvian Jungle alone and in charge of 12 middle school and elementary school age children who have just survived a harrowing plane crash that has taken the lives of the plane's crew, adult chaperones, and even a few of the less fortunate children. These are not just any ordinary children. They are part of an elite private school choir who is made up primarily of children from very wealthy families. These city children of privilege, who are used to enjoying the benefits of the good life must now learn to live in a sub-civilized environment and survive directly amidst the harsh elements of the jungle. They must learn to develop skills only a few in the world have mastered and must do so largely by trial and error or risk dying untimely deaths alone in this savage environment. Not only must these children overcome the obvious obstacles, many soon realize that they have their own personal challenges to overcome as they fight themselves from within and must conquer their own personal demons. The children soon evolve from their aristocratic city mindset into a savvy band of brothers and sisters capable of protecting themselves from the fiercest beasts that the jungle has to offer. By contrast they also make friends and even learn to frolic with the more playful of the jungle inhabitants. The group at first survives by using the shell of the aircraft as shelter, and by living off the land for many long months with no hint of rescue. Fortunately for their sanity, not everything in the jungle is dry seriousness, however. After all they are children and these kids sometimes find fun and games in the strangest of places and seem to excel at making the best of things even in the worst of circumstances. Be a witness to these remarkable children and
