Inclusion in Physical Education is a practical, easy-to-use guide filled with strategies that focus on developing the physical and social skills and fitness of students with disabilities. And these strategies do not involve extended planning or setup time or extra equipment.

Author Pattie Rouse has been working with students with disabilities since 1982. You can immediately put Rouse’s advice to work in setting realistic goals and including students with disabilities or delayed motor skills into your physical education curriculum. Inclusion in Physical Education is divided according to specific disabilities, thus helping you immediately find the information you need as well as the basic characteristics and expected behaviors of children with each type of disability. Rouse offers chapters on inclusion for students with these conditions:

• Autism disorder
