About this title

Synopsis

Developmental Reading Disabilities: A Language Based Treatment Approach, provides reasons and rationale for speech-language pathologists' involvement in identifying and managing reading disabilities. This book is written for practitioners who work with preschool and elementary age children who display subtle or overt oral and written language problems. However, many of the assessment tools an suggestions for remediation are applicable for adolescent students who demonstrate oral and written language problems. The book is also designed for graduate students in speech-language pathology and those in regular and special education who plan to work with students experiencing oral and written language problems.
