Please be sure to check out the following website which is connected with the Department of Special Education at James Madison University. It is a great resource!

The Learning Toolbox was developed as part of the Model Demonstration Project for Improving Postsecondary Education for Students with Mild Disabilities, a U.S. Office of Education grant awarded to James Madison University. The purpose of the Project was to develop, implement, and evaluate the effectiveness of course-specific strategy instruction with college students who have learning disabilities and ADHD. This one-on-one instructional approach significantly helped students improve their academic performance. One of the goals of this project was to share what we have learned. This website provides a way of sharing this approach so that others might use it.
We were especially eager to share the approach with high school students with mild disabilities, their teachers, and their parents. We believe that high school students who use this approach will be better prepared to meet rigorous academic challenges of high school and college. Consequently, the strategies and examples of how to apply these strategies to specific courses have been tailored to the needs of high school students.
Great site! Thank you, I am a second grade teacher and will certainly use this site for my class. Thanks again
