Summary |
"How do you deal with the challenge of teaching children with specific learning difficulties?" "Many children experience difficulties which impact on their learning at home and school. Some children are considered to have a specific learning difficulty such as dyslexia or dyspraxia, but other children display a range of indicators which cross the boundaries of specific named 'conditions'. If teachers are to offer appropriate support, the authors of this book argue that they must look beyond the label to assess the whole child." "Teachers, teaching assistants, SEN coordinators and students undertaking teacher training courses will all find this an accessible book."--BOOK JACKET |
