It also does an exceptional job of addressing the issue of youngsters who are recognized as being at-risk for future problems in learning and development. Through a host of proven learning techniques and additional related resources, students will come to fully understand important theoretical and philosophical foundations in serving children whose learning is delayed. These foundations include, but are not limited to, research-based decision making, developmentally and individually appropriate practices, a holistic view of young children and their families, cultural sensitivity and competence, and activity-based interventions., Children with Special Needs is a thorough introduction to the educational policies, programs, practices, and services specific to infants, toddlers, and preschoolers who demonstrate delays and disabilities. It also speaks to youngsters who exhibit signs of being at-risk for future programs in learning and development. Learning strategies make it easy for the reader to take in this wealth of information. These include educational vignettes, an Online Resource Web site, photographs, tables and figures.
