Summary "This text provides teachers and other education professionals with essential information on language development and disorders that will enable them to identify and effectively teach children with language difficulties." "The first section of this text presents updated research on language and language development with a focus on application to school-age students. The second section analyzes the language difficulties associated with specific disability types, including a new chapter on the language difficulties of students with emotional and behavioral disorders. The third section of the text focuses on contemporary assessment and instructional strategies. Several newer approaches including FastForWord, are discussed. The emphasis throughout is on instructional techniques that are firmly grounded in research."--BOOK JACKET
