Book excerpt: Excerpt from How the Teacher May Help the Exceptional Child: Suggestions for the Education of Exceptional Children Who Are Not in Special Classes In recent years We have come to recognize that children entering the first grade differ widely in their capacity to achieve. While the vast majority are closely similar, at either extreme are found some who differ In marked degree from the rest. These are the exceptional children, the handicapped and the gifted, who require differential treatment and training to make the most of their possibilities. The education of these exceptional children has marked social significance since from the handicapped, those at one extreme, come dependents and delinquents in numbers all out of propor tion to their frequency in the general population, and from the gifted, those at the other extreme, come most of our leaders. Neglect of the education of the handicapped means increased dependency and delinquency; neglect of the education of the gifted means inadequate leadership. Recent research in the field of psychology indicates that the attitudes, habits and experiences of early life determine success and failure in later life to a much greater degree than was formerly thought to be the case. The proper education of every child during his early years is therefore, a matter of paramount importance.
