Title: Be wary of listed strategies
Review: While this book has some valid accomodations and strategies, many of the listed "strategies" are not research- or evidence-based for improving the desired skills. They are simply 1.)restating what the child can not do (e.g. Reading Comprehension-Have the student read passages and answer questions about the passage), 2.)data-gathering activities (e.g.Make a list of those verb tenses the student most commonly uses incorrectly.), 3.)an activity that is either busy-work and/or not evidence-based for improving a skill (e.g.Have the student make a book of adjectives with one or two adjectives for each letter of the alphabet; Read a list of sentences with child's errors and have him make appropriate corrections orally.) Teachers, school administrators, and SLPs who are involved in response-to-intervention activities who use this book should do so with a critical eye.
