Abstract | The purpose of this quantitative retrospective quasi-experimental study was to determine if there was a statistically significant difference between sixth, seventh, and eighth grade special education students receiving multiple instructional strategies and sixth, seventh, and eighth grade students receiving traditional instructional strategies. This study was based on the previously taken standardized Criterion Referenced Competency Test in reading. The study took place in a Southwest Georgia School District. Multiple instructional strategies such as small groups and computerized reading lessons were used in the inclusion-reading classrooms. The reading teachers believed the inclusion model would not be beneficial. The researcher examined one main research question with supporting hypotheses. The main research question was answered whether there is a statistically significant difference between students receiving multiple instructional strategies and students receiving traditional instructional strategies. The experimental group for this study received inclusion instruction while the controlled group received traditional instruction. A data analysis was completed and based on the findings, students receiving traditional instruction achieved a mean score of 830. The inclusion students receiving multiple instruction achieved a mean score of 818. Despite the difference in mean scores, the inclusion students were also successful. The researcher focused on the issue to show there are positive outcomes from implementing inclusion. Recommendations involving a reading intervention such as guided reading groups, backwards design planning, and collaborative instruction were noted. A one-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) analysis tested significance and two-way ANOVA tested interaction. Both analyses were set at the 0.05 significance level to interpret the data.
