Developmental coordination disorder and other non-verbal learning difficulties ReferencesReviewsI think there is a real need for this book in helping schools to develop high-quality staged intervention. - Pippa Whittaker, secondary school Curriculum Leader for Inclusion, Bristol. Peter Westwood has carefully focused on learning disorders, a topic that requires clarity, and one that, to date, has not been adequately described in relation to classroom teaching and learning and evidence-based strategies and approaches. The RtI links add further rigour and relevance. - Dr Anne Bellert, Lecturer, School of Education, Southern Cross University. Response to Intervention is the hook. If I wanted a text to unpack this approach and begin to map it to certain learning profiles - then I would choose this title. - Lorraine Graham, Professor of Learning Intervention, Melbourne Graduate School of Education. This book is unique in that it illuminates the specific type of deficit a child might have and prescribes tools and pedagogy that might support the next steps. - Tammy Rasmussen, RTIi Implementation Facilitator, Oregon.
