Our favourite new resources for 2011....
Special Direct have developed and sourced over 80 new multi-sensory resources to help you maximise the potential of children with additional and special educational needs. We have been working hard with Subject Specialists, Advisors, Speech and Language Therapists, Occupational Therapists, SENCOs, Teachers and Teaching Assistants to source and design lots of useful resources for your classroom.
Flip-It!

The fantastic new way to learn across the curriculum. Children love the Flip-It, finding it a highly engaging, motivating way to learn. Simply pick a card, place it on the Flip-It, decide on your answer and then 'flip-it' to see if you're right!
The Flip-It is interactive, self-correcting, non-threatening and has no time restrictions.
