Description

What is Fragile X? The most common inherited cause of learning difficulties, affecting a child's ability to tackle key areas such as literacy and numeracy, and causing behaviour problems and social anxiety.

What can teachers do to help children with Fragile X become more effective learners?

This definitive text will provide essential support and information for teachers with the expertise of an international field of researchers, whose variety of perspectives contribute to a unique, multi-professional approach.

Each chapter of the book suggests practical intervention strategies, based on sound educational principles expressed in clear non-specific terms.

A range of important topics are considered, including:* the physical and behavioural characteristics of Fragile X* the effects of Fragile X on learning* medication and therapy* related conditions such as autism and attention deficit disorders. Breaking down the barriers of professional practice, this book establishes the groundwork for successful and valuable multi-professional teamwork.

By providing immediate access to a body of empirical knowledge and advice from other disciplines, it will encourage teachers to incorporate this approach into their own practice.

Everyone responsible for the education of a child with Fragile X syndrome should read this book.
