Abstract
A program was developed to increase the receptive and expressive language skills of secondary learning disabled students. Emphasis is on reading, writing, and listening skills. Thirty-one students (23 males and 8 females)---all LD except for 7 (4 males and 3 females)---had a baseline mean reading level of 3.2 as measured by the Woodcock Reading Mastery Tests at level R. After one year the group mean was 5.1. For the 19 students (all LD) enrolled in the program for 2 years, the mean rose to 6.3. The entire program is applicable to two delivery systems---resource room and self-contained with integration.
