Description
To teach a class full of individuals with learning difficulties is a great challenge. The problems that the teacher is faced with are innumerable and extremely diverse. Pupils range from those who are language delayed, and may have difficulties in reading, maths, solving word problems or performing basic computation to those students with disruptive behaviour and parents who do not seem to care. What do you do when there are students with four or five different need areas and achievement levels varying by years? Any sense of failure by the teacher will be picked up in the classroom. This book focuses on specific ways to regain control of learning and behaviour in the classroom. A practical text that recognises educators need a variety of strategies to be successful. Included are daily experiences of teachers on the "firing lines". The central theme is positive teaching and feeling positively about the children being taught. This book should be of interest to teachers of children with learning disabilities.
