Book Reviews of Classroom Language Skills for Children with Down Syndrome: A Guide for Parents and Teachers (Topics in Down Syndrome)
Book Review: A must have for parents and teachers
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is full of information to help parents and teachers adapt the language demands of the classroom to the needs of their child with Down syndrome. There's information on how the teacher can adapt her spoken instructions, written work, and classroom routines for the child with Down syndrome. There's information on figuring out how the speech therapist could best help your child master the curriculum and improve his communication skills--not to mention how to advocate for the type and amount of speech therapy that would most benefit your child. And there's information about how parents can work with teachers to make homework assignments do-able and meaningful for your child, as well as ways to enrich communication development outside of the classroom. I must say that it sounds like the previous reviewer meant to review a different book and mistakenly clicked on this one! Her review seems to be about a book on teaching reading--Classroom Language Skills includes a little information about adapting reading work in the classroom, but goes way beyond that. She obviously didn't read the same book that I did.
