Abstract
It has been demonstrated repeatedly the LD children are often the targets of negative behavior and social rejection by age-peers. In this review paper, two primary areas of literature are examined: a) the social interactions typical of LD children; and b) peer-mediated strategies for enhancing LD children's social standing. In a final section, we examine the critical role to be played by classroom teachers in altering the social rejection experienced by LD children.Keywords
