Storytelling Strategies for Reaching and Teaching Children With Special NeedsStorytelling Strategies for Reaching and Teaching Children With Special Needs

"Contributors who have told stories to children with special needs in classroom and library settings discuss storytelling: what, why, how; storytelling strategies for children with emotional or behavioral disabilities, with intellectual or developmental disabilities, with physical disabilities, and with multiple disabilities; and strategies for inclusive classrooms and general audiences. Among the topics are a language of empathy: etiquette of interaction with disabilities, making meaning from images, multi-sensory storytelling with children who have complex additional needs, and inclusive embodied storytelling strategies: power words."--Provided by publisher.
