For many of us it was a brother, a sister, or other family member with severe learning differences. Maybe it was a chance encounter that opened your eyes and heart to their world, inspiring you to become a special education teacher.

By whichever path you came to it, you now are in the classroom and challenged to bring children at all stages of the spectrum – from the high functioning to the most isolated -- together for the common cause of learning.

The Lorikeet Learning system has been developed over thirty years by working with these special children in Southeastern, Pennsylvania. Through the use of song, color, pictures, movement, cadence and rhyme “Dr. Mike” Mallee has created a program that will help you accomplish what often seems unachievable – capturing the attention of children coping with autism, Down’s Syndrome, Fragile X Syndrome, language delays, developmental delays, and brain injury, and transforming them into eager learners, singing their way to independence in reading, math, social studies and daily living skills.
