Do you ever wish that you had the extra time to adapt books or novels that are being used in the general education classroom so that a student with disabilities can fully participate and engage in the same academic content as their peers? Through a variety of free web-based sites dedicated to adapting books for students with disabilities, you can have adapted books at your fingertips! Using free websites developed by the University of North Carolina at Charlotte and Baltimore City Schools, workshop participants will get hands-on experience in finding appropriate books for their students.

About the Series
Inclusive Practices in Action is a series of workshops designed to provide support for those very busy special education teachers, general education teachers, paraprofessionals and other service providers who are trying to fully include their students in the general education curriculum. You will be amazed at how much your students learn and how efficient and productive your work will be after learning these time-saving supportive techniques.

Who Should Attend:

General and special education teachers, paraprofessionals, speech language pathologists, case managers, inclusion facilitators, physical and occupational therapists, and others are encouraged to attend.

Sponsored by the National Center on Inclusive Education
The National Center on Inclusive Education (NCIE) at the Institute on Disability (IOD) at the University of New Hampshire advances the view that disability is a natural part of the human experience and promotes the inclusion of all students within general education classrooms and school communities. The NCIE accomplishes its mission through a) personnel preparation, b) professional development and training, c) research, d) systems transformation, e) leadership development, f) providing access to information and resources, and g) fostering a culture of inclusion. With the NCIE, the IOD is bringing together all of its inclusive education efforts under one "roof" in order to better meet the needs of children with disabilities and their families, educators, and others concerned with inclusive school communities.
