SPECIAL NEEDS COLLECTION
For parents, caregivers, and professionals who work with children
Thursday, January 27, 3:00-5:00 p.m.
You are invited to drop by the library and browse our newest educational books and manipulatives. These carefully selected materials support the various learning styles, social and emotional development and sensory integration issues of children. We have hands-on games, flashcards and learning material with teacher's guides as well as informative books for parents and teachers working with children with unique learning needs. We are hoping this collection will supplement resources for professionals, provide children with new material for learning and be a useful teaching guide for parents to use at home. Take advantage of this chance to take a sneak peak at the collection before it hits the shelves.
