Synopsis
From The Book Jacket "Stevens has done it again! Her newest book on learning disabilities is lucid, accurate, insightful, practical, and it makes superb reading.... Her book provides the most helpful information I have seen for regular classroom teachers who are concerned with the realities and the nitty-gritties of helping LD children. My only regret is that the book has not been available for the last 20 years." DR. BARBARA BATEMAN University of Oregon "Stevens' book should be on the desk of every elementary and middle school teacher in every English-speaking country of the world. Stevens must have been an excellent classroom teacher, for she obviously understands both good elementary education and the learning-disabled child. Her book will go far to assist learning-disabled children toward a greater realization of their potentials." WILLIAM M. CRUICKSHANK, Ph.D. University of Michigan Between ten and twelve percent of the children in the U.S. are learning disabled. With such a large proportion of the population affected, the problem is not simply the concern of parents, LD individuals, and their teachers. It is the concern of society as a whole. In Classroom Success for the Learning Disabled, Suzanne Stevens discusses ways that we can help these children succeed in school and grow into productive adults. She offers practical suggestions on: Recognizing the LD child Adjusting teaching techniques Adapting texts and other materials Using LD specialists and psychologists effectively Adjusting classroom management procedures Testing and grading fairly Mainstreaming the LD child Stevens, a learning disabilities expert and a former classroom teacher, is the author of The Learning-Disabled Child: Ways That Parents Can Help.
