WALC 1 has proven to be an excellent therapy supplement for adolescent and adult clients who have difficulties with auditory and visual comprehension and/or oral and written expression, such as clients who exhibit aphasia due to stroke or head injury. You’ll get plenty of exercises and activities organized in a hierarchical order to ensure mastery of strategies and skills. The content and format of WALC 1 is a proven winner for effective rehabilitation. Like all WALCs, this book teaches the strategies behind the skills. Page after page of exercises for each target area provide sufficient exposure for acquisition of the strategy. The hierarchical organization of the items reflects an increase in difficulty within a task and from task to task, as the client builds upon the strategies or processes he is relearning how to use.
