Every Child Can Learn: Using learning tools and play to help children with Developmental Delay (Book & CD-ROM)

Based on their clinical practice and extensive experience in the field, the authors provide a creative and flexible guide to helping young children with learning difficulties. Their accessible and positive approach focuses on children′s potential and what they can―rather than cannot―do, and can be carried out at home, in school, or in therapy sessions. The approach, applicable to all students, including those of diverse backgrounds, can be extended to all aspects of the child′s life, and enables them to participate in everyday activities at home and school.

Fully illustrated, the book offers techniques and activities to help children develop their learning, with a focus on:

• Developing learning tools
• Working with parents
• Language and communication
• Behavior and emotional development
• Integrating learning into everyday life

The book includes a CD-ROM/DVD with printable material for making cards and worksheets, plus illustrative video material.
