Online Training Series: Ways to engage your learning disabled students

An introduction to the Bamboozle methodology and the results it achieves. 

Children who would not usually indicate independent exploration actively engaged in the session. Vocalisations, words and phrases were spoken that are rarely heard in the classroom. I was overwhelmed by the response from our children.” – Josie McGrath. Teacher, Priory Woods School.
