Drs. Fleischner and Garnett explain how LD students actually solve math problems and give practical tips on how to get at the root causes of their math errors. With demonstrations of specific strategies, the tape covers problem solving, basic arithmetic, and makes points about number systems.

This is the fourth video of The TLD Video Program, a series of eight videos, which includes topics dealing with motivation, organization, reading concepts, math strategies, multisensory learning techniques and science. The series was produced with outstanding master teachers in Special Education to help professionals working with kindergarten through adults teach LD students across the curriculum. The tapes provide a good in-service for teachers who have mainstreamed LD students in their classroom and are excellent for programming with parent groups.

"Superb! This easy-to-watch series helps educators understand the important characteristics and problems of LD students. It is packed with timely, useful information and practical, innovative teaching ideas." -Jamie Williams, M.Ed., Coordinator, The Learning Therapist Graduate Certificate Program, Southern Methodist University
