Abstract
This study describes a program and its rationale for S. L. D.
children as it evolved over a two-year period. Approaches included
multi-sensory approach for reading, typing to develop reading and
spelling, and a combination of behavioral modification and group
therapy to improve self-image and develop social competence .
Shifts in grouping and changes in environment caused continuous
revision of the program. Test results showing growth patterns in
reading and spelling are included Suggestions for additional research
are made.
