Proven to have a positive impact on pupils, this tried and tested complete programme combines memory strategies with suggestions on how to practice them within a small group, the classroom and at home. The resources provided by this book includes teaching notes,photocopiable games and activities, sample letters, information sheets, bespoke baseline assessment tools as well as a detailed programme that can be run by a teaching assistant under the guidance of the SENCo.
