Each individual need is explained over a 2-page spread and every entry includes:
- Case studies encouraging you to reflect on real-life situations to understand the impact each condition has on people and how they and their parents deal with it.
- Do it steps offering a simple step-by-step approach that you can follow in order to meet additional needs arising out of these conditions.
- Important steps for the classroom specifically for teachers to use.
- Recommended reading, suggesting books, articles and websites where further information on specific conditions are available.
