Recenzje

"Educational practitioners and preservice educators, this book is for you! I love the accessibility of this book and the straightforward guidance it provides. Without assuming extensive prior knowledge on the part of the reader, McDaniel, Bruhn, and Estrapala give a clear overview of each chapter, explain relevant concepts, and offer real-world examples and case studies of Tier 2 practices in action. It is evident how much care the authors have given to the unique challenges facing our students and educational systems today. This hopeful book allows us to see Tier 2 supports as uplifting and preventive--the way they are meant to be."--Rhonda N. T. Nese, PhD, Department of Special Education and Clinical Sciences, University of Oregon

"This book is a practical gem for educators, administrators, and school support staff. McDaniel, Bruhn, and Estrapala provide a clear and logical roadmap, offering step-by-step guidance that bridges theory and practice. The book's user-friendly approach ensures effective implementation of Tier 2 interventions to support students' social, emotional, and behavioral well-being. This book is a 'must have' for anyone dedicated to enhancing the learning environment and fostering students' emotional growth."--Tina M. Lawson, EdD, BCBA, educational consultant, Pennsylvania Training and Technical Assistance Network-
