Helping Children Learn
Intervention Handouts for Use in School and at Home
By Jack A. Naglieri, Ph.D., & Eric B. Pickering, Ph.D.



"Helping Children Learn is an immensely valuable, educational aid. Naglieri and Pickering offer scientifically validated, research based methods to improve the key underlying skills necessary for academic success. The strategies offered are well-defined and practical to implement in diverse classrooms. This is one of my favorite educational support texts." —Sam Goldstein, Ph.D., Neurology Learning and Behavior Center, Utah.

Created by psychologists, this common-sense guide offers a fresh approach to teaching children who struggle in school. Featuring almost 50 intervention handouts that really help children learn, the book is ideal for teachers to use in the classroom and parents to use at home. School psychologists can use the short questionnaire based on Naglieri & Das’s Cognitive Assessment System to help assess student strengths and needs and select interventions. Teachers and parents use the photocopiable handouts to help students
  • build a foundation for academic success by improving attention, self-control, thinking skills, listening, and more

  • improve specific skills in academic areas such as reading, writing, spelling, and math

  • progress in four cognitive areas with strategies that address common classroom problems related to each area

These easy-to-use handouts were developed around the four cognitive areas in Naglieri’s PASS: Planning, Attention, Simultaneous, and Successive. Each handout — ideal for use with an entire class, small groups, or individual students — clearly describes the skill involved, indicates which children should use the intervention, and suggests strategies you can implement right away. And because the handouts were developed around a well-respected cognitive processing theory, school psychologists, teachers, and parents can be sure they’re getting proven, reliable approaches to solving students’ academic challenges at school and at home.
