We Hear the Children

A Professional Refection on Special Education

By: Robert Philip Shafer PhD

Narrated by: Dave Wright

We Hear the Children is written for parents, teachers, and anyone interested in the intricacies of special education.

Dr. Shafer uses individual case studies to explain how barriers interfere with the successful growth and development of children with special needs. He explains the importance of the environmental structure, and the vital need for excellent teachers to drive the curriculum, and create a classroom where students can find success. Dr. Shafer lists strategies and ideas that can be used by teachers and parents to promote success for their children, improve classroom climate and structure, and develop tools to help navigate a successful life path for every special needs child.

Finally, Dr. Shafer describes how to utilize a success model that lists the key factors that will help any child, classroom, or school site to create a “perfect school” environment that will lead to success, happiness, and achievement.
