REQUEST A SAMPLE OR MORE INFORMATION
Children with Down’s Syndrome may exhibit various challenging behaviours, but they are not themselves “problematic children.” This concise guide, part of the well-known What to Do (and Not Do) series, offers primary school teachers suggestions and strategies for successfully managing 12 common behavioural issues associated with Down’s Syndrome.
What to do and what to avoid
Each chapter includes a brief overview of a specific behavior (what to keep in mind), indications on the intervention (how to intervene), suggestions and insights (advice from the expert and in-depth analysis). The teacher will be guided towards understanding the situations described through emotional, cognitive and behavioral reading.
