More students with disabilities (SWDs) are being educated in the general education classroom than ever before. This means that SWDs are spending more time in middle school science classrooms. SWDs may struggle to access information from science textbooks and lessons for multiple reasons, including reading difficulties. In this article, the authors review the literature and provide recommendation on how science teachers can implement these strategies into their classrooms. These strategies include vocabulary instruction, comprehension strategies, and graphic organizers.
