As

school may not have the resources to meet their needs. Help!

you through the process of identifying, understanding, and instructing
these special-needs students--with the goal of enabling them to
achieve their God-given potential.
In this book, Dr. Martin provides descriptions and diagnostic details
for identifying ADHD, learning disabilities, emotional barriers
to learning, and underachievement in talented and gifted students.

students with learning problems--accessing community resources,
implementing management and teaching strategies, and using accommodation
and remediation methods. Educators will also find an extensive list
of resources.

who learn differently, but simply don't know what can be done or
don't have the budget, materials, or staff to set up a specialized
program. this book is intended to help close the gap between educational
goals and instructional reality for students with ADHD, learning
disabilities, or emotional barriers to learning.
