Listen to
Dr. Mel Levine and Dr. Katherine Butler discuss language as
a critical tool for learning and also an outcome of learning at
the All Kinds of Minds
website. This is the most comprehensive site I have found which
addresses learning strengths and weaknesses and how we can help
all students succeed in school by understanding what kind of a
mind they have. This site has an incredible amount of
information and is a "must visit" for any parent and
professional who wants to understand how all children learn.
There is a wealth of strategies and activities presented in a
very straightforward and easy to understand manner. |
