UNDERSTANDING CHILDREN WITH SPECIAL NEEDS

It is my fond hope that the contents of this book would serve as a basic guide for teachers and parents of special need children. It can be used by teachers as well as parents on their own without any difficulty in understanding the problems faced by differently abled children and strategies suggested. I would also like to mention here that no single book can cover the special needs of all children considering the heterogeneity of conditions involved. Two children having the same degree of disability may function at different levels and may require different interventions. This book is therefore not setting standards nor is it prescriptive. It presents enough scope for teachers and parents to reflect and innovate.
