Teach Me Different! The Nature of the Condition
Description
This classic program featuring Sally L. Smith provides a detailed composite description of children with learning disabilities. Strengths typically include originality, imagination, talent in the arts, and a love of nature, technology, color, movement, and building things. Weaknesses tend to include neurological immaturity, disorganization, distractibility, short attention span, poor motor skills, language problems, limited group skills, and easily becoming overwhelmed. The video also explains why the arts work well as a medium through which to teach LD children.
