Abstract
The difficulties encountered by learning disabled children in the area of oral language have been recognized by many writers. It has been proposed that the academic problems experienced by many learning disabled children are closely associated with the difficulties they experience in oral language. Magee and Newcomer explore this association and delineate components of oral language in learning disabled children which relate most significantly with reading, mathematics, and spelling.Keywords
