xv, [3], 326, [8] pages. Illustrations. Appendices (Glossary, Recommended Books, Films, Professional Journals, List of Tests, Sample IEP). Index. Some pencil markings observed. Some page discoloration. Sally Liberman Smith (May 7, 1929 - December 1, 2007) was an American educator. Smith founded the Lab School for children with learning difficulties in 1967. She was also a professor in the School of Education and the Head of the Graduate Program in Special Education at the American University until the time of her death. After receiving her master's degree, Smith worked for the World Health Organization and lived abroad, moving with Robert Smith who was in the Foreign Service. In 1967, when Smith's youngest son, Gary, was in first grade, Smith discovered the extent of Gary's learning disabilities that were hindering him from excelling in school in the same way as his peers. Motivated by the lack of services for children like Gary, Smith started the Lab School with children from her neighborhood. Smith observed her son's interaction and progress during the themed birthday parties she would throw. She used this idea and technique to create an interactive classroom. The Academic Club Method was created by Smith during the first years of the Lab School as more and more parents enrolled their children at the school. Smith also took on the role of professor and head of the Learning Disabilities Masters program at the American University in Washington. Smith established the Academic Club Teaching Service (ACTS) in 2005 to train educators at other intuitions in the Academic Club Method. Sally Smith held a strong belief in the ability of all children to learn and discover their talents, believing that traditional education reaches a certain sector of the population but innovative methods are needed to help unlock the talent within children with learning abilities outside of that spectrum. The Lab School model uses art-infused academic coursework in such a way as to address the specific neurological passageways in the brains of students with learning disabilities. Smith found that often these children have a higher I.Q. than their peers and, thus, require stimulation for critical thinking and logic-based approaches to learning. Smith also believed highly in the importance of enjoyment in the learning process and often spoke of the joy expressed by her students in coming to the Lab School. Parents and teachers of learning disabled children have tumed to Sally Smith's No Easy Answers for information, advice, and comfort for more than forty years. Information on learning disabilities is presented in a clear, honest, and accessible way. Sally Smith, the parent of a learning disabled child herself, guides parents along every step of the way, from determining if their child is learning disabled to challenging the school system to provide special services. Drawing on more than twenty-five years of experience at her own nationally acclaimed school, she also offers valuable strategies to teachers who are anxious or discouraged as they struggle with learning disabled students. Although there are no easy answers, Sally Smith's experience, wealth of information, and sense of humor provide essential support. Bantam Edition [stated], Sixth printing [stated].…
