"The book contains simple-to-use and comprehensive screeners for initial identification of a pupil`s learning disability, a practical structure for monitoring classroom behaviours, and tried-and-tested strategies for addressing common areas of concern, including problems staying on task, inability to work on group tasks and failure to seek help when needed. The author explores the benefits of a range of different interventions, and offers practical solutions for improving pupils` behaviours, social skills and self-esteem. Key educational theories which will help teachers understand some of the influences that contribute to classroom behaviours are outlined, and the author also offers advice on how to develop the classroom management skills needed to address the behaviours of special needs pupils."--Cover
