- Abstract
Four papers give attention to the physically handicapped child. The development of young cerebral palsied children according to Piaget's sensorimotor theory is discussed by F. Annette Tessier. The nature of crippled and other health impaired populations and provisions for their education are summarized by Joan R. Ward, based upon information presented at the Special Study Institute on Professional Preparation for Educators of Crippled Children (West Point, New York, December 9-12, 1970). Richard Galusha describes the Dr. J. P. Lord School for Physically handicapped children, an Omaha, Nebraska public school. In the fourth brief paper, Joe Gaughan reviews a model Title VI-B program for physically handicapped children in Nebraska - a Therapeutic Nursery School. (KW)
