"I like the fact that the intention is for the book to be very practical. It's exactly what time pressed teachers need. The theory aspect is useful to set the work in context and help non specialists understand why they are doing what they are. Planning underpins successful interventions so the ideas for planning will be invaluable. The included resources will save staff having to invent their own. I think the reference to cross curricular links is useful and I am especially pleased to see that Yes I can see a huge demand for this book. It would be used as a practical resource for teachers and support staff and families. Numeracy skills are included too."
- Joanna Clayton, SENCO, mainstream school
"A fantastic resource that will open up the potential for this approach impacting on children’s learning –not just playing with (LEGO®)!!"
