Abstract

When school librarians learn that Special Needs classes are coming for weekly library classes, they often feel uncertain in their abilities to create engaging lessons. This article describes a school librarian’s development of an ef ective library program for four Special Education classes over the span of ten years. Professional books, conversations with Special Education teachers and anecdotal notes that validate teaching strategies helped to frame a Year long Plan of engaging lessons and activities which have been shared at professional librarian conferences. School librarians can use the Tips and Tricks to create a curriculum that makes Special Needs children love their libraries too!
