This book provides a comprehensive overview of vision problems in children with developmental disabilities such as AD/HD, autism spectrum disorders, and specific learning disabilities.
Written in a very accessible style, it is appropriate for parents and professionals alike and offers non-technical explanations of how vision difficulties are screened for and advice on where to seek appropriate professional care. Lisa Kurtz outlines a range of activities for strengthening children's functional vision and perceptual skills using simple, homemade materials that are readily available in the home or classroom. This is an excellent practical companion for parents of children with visual perception problems and the professionals who work with them.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Jessica Kingsley PublishersISBN-13:9781843108269ISBN-10:1843108267UPC:9781843108269Book Category:Education, Family & Relationships, MedicalBook Subcategory:Special Education, Children with Special Needs, OphthalmologyBook Topic:Behavioral, Emotional & Social DisabilitiesSize:9.62 x 6.80 x 0.30 inchesWeight:0.47Product ID:SCP2XQ7B00
