Superb Book 
2005-07-06
The best resource book I have come across in many a year. Photocopiable resources covering all areas of the curriculum. Excellent lesson suggestions and outlines.I have found this book so helpful for maths, spelling, writing, handwriting and reading.
great references 2004-07-17
I bought this book as a supplement for a special education class I was taking and it was worth every cent!If you are interested in LD personally or professionally you should have this book!
wish we had a uk version 2004-02-17
i have been searching for a book like this for so long and purchased it from amazon on international delivery. There is so much in this book and was exactly what i was looking for. if anything i wish there was a UK version so that the rules and laws surrounding special needs could be addressed from my own country. However, there was still loads of information in the book that i needed and could use. any chance of a uk version in the future???

Very informative. Very good reference for those taking the alternative route to teaching certification. Contains practical scenarios on how theories in education are applied.
Ongoing Professional Development 2007-10-18
I represent a private, non-profit organization that provides evaluation and tutoring services for children K-8. We strongly believe in professional development in order to maintain a high level of competency in the field of education. When our teachers have an opening in their schedule, they select books like this to review, to reflect and to write a summary, which is submitted to me for review and professional credit. Our entire teaching staff has found this book to be a good resource.
Very Useful Book 2007-04-10
I found this book to be useful and very informative concerning special education. It covered testing, laws, terms and definitions. I've been using it to study for the Praxis Special Ed exams and feel that I will be well prepared.
Excellent Resource for the LD 2007-03-09
I am a preservice teacher and am studying special education. I saw this book on Amazon and was intrigued by the low price. I was so surprised when I received it. It is a wonderful resource for anyone who works with students with LD. It covers the whole gambit from identification, to characteristics, to strategies. It really is a complete handbook and for the price you can't find a better deal. I have found this resource much more useful than my textbooks on LD that cost me upwards 70-80 dollars. I would wholeheartedly recommend this book!
Great resource! 
2006-07-10
As a new resource teacher for my school this was one of the better books I found to help me with real life solutions to teaching learning disabled children. This was a great book for explanations of various learning disabilities and set exercises to use in class for all age groups. I work mostly one on one, but found the activities and strategies easily adaptable for individual use.
