Inclusion For Children with Speech and Language Impairments: Accessing the Curriculum and Promoting Personal and Social Development [Paperback]

This book is about children with speech and language impairments and what teachers and other professionals can do to promote their learning and their social inclusion in a mainstream setting. A brief introduction to SLI is followed by a chapter on the main issues for the classroom; how teachers can support the preferred learning style of the children and literacy and numeracy strategies are each given a separate section.

Inclusion involves more than the learning experience and so the social, emotional and behavioral agenda, including successful transition and working with parents, is given equal emphasis.Chapter 1 The language system and how it develops; Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Multidisciplinary assessment; Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Reading and the literacy hour; Chapter 4 Chapter 4 The Numeracy Strategy; Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Sample subjects through the key stages; Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Strategies to support learning; Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Language and behaviour; Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Social groups; Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Inclusion and working with parents; Appendix 1; Appendix 2; Appendix 3; References Index;Kate Ripley, Jenny Barrett, Pam, FlemingUSCopyright ?
