Exceptional Teaching: A Comprehensive Guide for Including Students with Disabilities (Paperback)

Pierson, Jim

Dr. Jim Pierson. With an eye toward making it practical and easy for the inexperienced leader to use, Dr. Jim Pierson has compiled a must-have resource for all ministry leaders.

While writing Exceptional Teaching, Pierson worked with seven growing churches that have vital ministries to people with disabilities and special needs. He asked the ministry leaders to share current information, helpful ideas for integrating students with disabilities into the classroom, teacher-training ideas, and handouts to help beginning ministry programs. With the focus on helping everyone, these ministry leaders willingly poured their time and experience into this book.

An introductory section contains background information on the growing recognition of the need for special education, and the mandate Christians have from Jesus Christ. Pierson then identifies twelve steps to initiating a ministry and includes surveys and materials for training workshops. Each of the following seventy-seven sections identifies a diagnosis, explains the characteristics of a student with that diagnosis, suggests ways to address and offer physical assistance, and gives teaching methods that work best. The resource section lists books, agencies, useful web sites and successful ministries.
