Opis

Auditory Processing Disorder (APD) can have a significant impact on attainment in school and affects an estimated 5-10% of all children. This book explains what APD is and how to support children with APD in the classroom. APD affects reading comprehension, developing phonic knowledge, memory development, spelling and phonetics, and the ability to grasp the -big picture- when listening to detailed information. Presenting clear information on how to recognise the condition, this book will help schools to distinguish APD from other conditions, such as dyslexia, ADHD and autism, and provide guidance on when and how to support diagnosis. It includes a range of practical strategies and suggested accommodations to help children with APD in the classroom, and concludes with a chapter of useful tips for parents.
