Three questions provide the structure of the book: What are the specific learning characteristics of children with language difficulties? What are the critical points where such characteristics lead to difficulties in the mathematical syllabus? What can be done about them?The book is in two parts. Part One raises the problems, looks at research and suggests methods. Part Two picks up some of the methods and describes them in detail for the practitioner wanting to try them.
