{"product_id":"2940158643699","title":"Being and Teaching Special Needs","description":"Being and Teaching Special Needs\u003cbr\u003eGary David Sills\u003cbr\u003eBook Summary\u003cbr\u003eThis book is autobiographical in nature, considerably more informal than a thesis or a research paper. My emotional handicaps struck the week before my senior year of high school. This was at a time when \"Special Education\" was not established. Mental illness was not a comfortable topic, especially in a Christian home.\u003cbr\u003eIn this book, my method is to take the reader with me into my struggles, disappointments, and failures in higher education and how I overcame them. As I built skills with troubled teens, I added education from a Christian university that gave me more than adequate tools to teach some of the most difficult to manage students. Limitations in this kind of writing are describing how I dealt with challenges in my classroom without noting research-based methods or other sources.\u003cbr\u003eMy memoirs here as a handicapped student improperly diagnosed for many years will be of value to parents wrestling with similar problems. Included in the memoir are many scenarios from my classroom in which I modeled successful responses to situations and explained why; I also offered usable innovations that your teacher will find helpful.","brand":"Christian Faith Publishing, Inc","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47115720261872,"sku":"2940158643699","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940158643699_p0.jpg?v=1764115468","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940158643699","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
