Bredekamp, Sue
Topics in Early Childhood Special Education, v13 n3 p258-73 Fall 1993
This paper describes (1) common misconceptions about developmentally appropriate practices; (2) areas in which convergence between general and special early childhood education can be achieved; and (3) current collaborative efforts between the two disciplines (e.g., individually appropriate practices, emphasis on early intervention, family-centered services, advocacy, transition issues, and interdisciplinary approaches).
