It is often said that successful special education teachers need heart and passion to provide services for students with disabilities. Yet at the same time, effective special education teachers also must know the science of high-leverage and evidence-based practices to meet the needs of their students and families. Our book will combine these two narratives to present how both the heart and science of teaching special education intersect. This book will be inspirational and educational. It will be a book that every special education teacher must read!
