Title: Recognizing success blocks
Review: Dr. Levine once again shows us how no one wants to fail, but may fail in the face of overwheming obstacles. I just happen to be reading this book when I had a boy in class, Ruben, who failed to complete any class work. It was easy to recognize his lack of fine motor skills. Once the problem was diagnosed, we were able to use multiple strategies to overcome this block and help Ruben find his level of success.As teachers, knowing how to diagnose a learing difficulty and being able to intervene with stratgies to help should be our goal. Dr. Levine, with his extraordinary insight and clinical experience takes the guess work out of this process for those of us in the field.A must read for teachers who want to see all of their students succeed, not just the ones who do what we say when we say it.
