5.0 out of 5 stars VERY informative book!, December 7, 2006

By	W. Walker "Homeschooler" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

As a homeschooler with an ADHD/LD son, I picked up this book at the library hoping for some advice on making lessons more do-able for my son. I feel like I hit the jackpot! Although directed to classroom teachers, this book contains info that is useful for both parents and teachers. It gives examples of how various types of lesson plans can be adapted to varying abilities without sacrificing content. It provides "ammo" for parents who (unfortunately) must fight with schools to accomodate their child's needs. It gives a picture of what kind of classroom can meet the needs of ALL students. this book should be read by ANYONE who works with ADD/LD children.

4.0 out of 5 stars Clear and concise guide to understanding the special child., August 6, 1998

By A Customer

This book gives a clear and useful accounting of the difficulties encountered by students with LD's and ADHD. The first two chapters introduce Al, a young man with classic ADHD. The rest of the book expands on how this person deals with his disability and how classroom teachers can recognize and help those with ADHD and LD's.
