Editorial Review
A good working memory is crucial to becoming a successful leaner, yet there is very little material available in an easy-to-use format that explains the concept and offers practitioners ways to support children with poor working memory in the classroom.
This book provides a coherent overview of the role played by working memory in learning during the school years, and uses theory to inform good practice.
Topics covered include:
" the link between working memory skills and key areas of learning (such as literacy & numeracy)
" the relationship between working memory and children with developmental disorders
" assessment of children for working memory deficits
" strategies for supporting working memory in under-performing children
This accessible guide will help SENCOs, teachers, teaching assistants, speech and language therapists and educational psychologists to understand and address working memory in their setting

Working Memory Is Very Helpful for Parents, too! 
2008-08-26
This book is easy to read, and it covers a topic "Working Memory" in far greater detail than other articles and references that are generally available in the US. I am pleased to see this topic being discussed, as my child has impaired working memory. We are struggling to determine the best methods possible to help her learn. I would recommend this book to all teachers and to parents who have a child with impaired working memory.
