Dr. Martha Bridge Denckla provides parents and educators with general knowledge, research findings, and practical recommendations about a variety of these developmental conditions, including dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, autism spectrum disorder, problems with motor coordination, and executive dysfunction. Inspired by her efforts to explain these conditions to parents over 45 years of clinical practice, she provides a science-based understanding of the issues in an accessible format. She uses the science of cognitive and behavioral neurology to help readers understand how the interrelationships of brain, environment, and behavior produce these developmental disorders, and to provide a basis for parenting and education programs based upon understanding how variations in brain development should guide plans for what is taught when to whom. Such developmentally appropriate, evidence-based, differentiated instruction within general education can diminish the demand for separate special education, and will thus serve all kinds of brains, whether "typical" or "inconvenient." -- Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Learning disabilities. 650 0 $a Children with mental disabilities. 650 0 $a School children. 650 7 $a Children with mental disabilities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00855620 650 7 $a Learning disabilities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00994891 650 7 $a School children. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01107147 650 12 $a Neurodevelopmental Disorders. 650 12 $a Child. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Denckla, Martha Bridge. $t Understanding learning and related disabilities. $d New York, NY : Routledge, 2019 $z 9780429425981 $w (DLC) 2018034798 941 $a 1 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508022942.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=CB81B03490F111EA86A69E4897128E48 994 $a 92 $b UINInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
