The text is organized into nine chapters. The first is the introductory chapter, the second provides a review of the various components of written language and the types of difficulties that students may have with handwriting, spelling, usage, vocabulary and text structure. The third chapter provides an overview of the writing process approach. The fourth chapter reviews the legal protections and various accommodations to which students are entitled. Chapters five, six and seven contain summaries of instructional strategies that may be used to enhance student performance in the areas of handwriting, basic skills and written expression. The eighth chapter presents analyses of writing samples from students in first-through eighth-grade levels that are reviewed within a diagnostic-prescriptive format. Chapter nine contains writing samples with guided questions that can be used for independent study, as assignments, or for in-class discussions.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eComponents of Written Language.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Writing Process Approach.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Accommodations and Modifications.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Handwriting.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Basic Skills.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Written Expression.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Analysis of Writing Samples.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Additional Writing Samples.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Appendices.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e References.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Indexes.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Psychology [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Psychology\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Psychology%20%5BJM%5D%22\"\u003eJM\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52286245601560,"sku":"9780471162087","price":59.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9780471162087.jpg?v=1781547640","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/informal-assessment-and-instruction-in-written-language-a-practitioners-guide-for-students-with-learning-disabilities-paperback-softback-9780471162087","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
