About this listen

 Imagine having a psychologist available to help you understand some of your more challenging students. Maybe you have a child with ADHD or autism in your class. You want to understand what's going on with them, without having to read a textbook. You want to know some approaches that work, and maybe find out if you're doing something wrong. And if you could get a glimpse of how that child sees things, you could know better how to reach them. Letter to My Teacher was written with the classroom teacher in mind.With compassion and respect for both teacher and child, a school psychologist offers insights into some of the more common special needs students that teachers may encounter. She gives a description of what autism, dyslexia, and other disabilities look like in the classroom, what current research says about the causes, strategies that work and ones that don't. Each chapter ends with a fictional "Letter to My Teacher" from a child with a particular disability to a teacher who had been helpful, inspiring and memorable. The letter describes how the child functioned and felt, what the teacher did that helped, and how that child is now functioning as an adult. The final chapter is an extensive annotated bibliography, so that teachers can explore books and online resources related to the areas they want to learn more about. In over 30 years of professional experience, Dr. Abena Asantewaa has developed immense respect for the lasting impact that teachers can have on their students. This book is intended to encourage and support teachers as they shape the lives of their students. Parents may also find the descriptions, written in down-to-earth language, to be helpful in working with their children's teachers and administrators Education Student Mental Health Dyslexia
