Description: Suggests that the most effective way to help a child learn is to discover at what level he is presently functioning and proceed from there. Shows children and their specific problems, pointing out how each may be handicapped in the learning process. Presents some of the remedial procedures which are used to help learning handicapped students., The basic operating principle here is that, if a child cannot do the job, it is the teacher's responsibility to figure out what level of functioning the youngster is on and start there with materials and procedures to help him take the small next steps in the desired direction. A number of model training sequences are presented in detail--discriminating among sounds, vocabulary, development, developing basic number concepts--to name a few.
