    If a child doesn’t have good communication skills, then the ability to form and maintain friendships can be affected with some children becoming withdrawn because how can we expect a child to be able to read, write or spell a word if they can’t say the word or sound it out? They will also find it hard to understand what they have read if they have struggled to hear. Other children could display difficulties with their behaviour because many children with identified behaviour needs have previously unidentified SLCN. They may find many aspects of learning a lot harder including all the aspects of literacy skills which in turn will affect them across the whole curriculum. Children may struggle to listen to and understand any instructions given.…

    For Maria Montessori, her philosophies of child-centered were also similarly to Dewey. In Montessori classroom, there is no focal center of the classroom, this reflects that the teacher is not the focus of the children’s attention. Children can choose their own work of their interest, and set their own pace without interruption. During the work period, teacher support and monitor the student’s work and provide individual and small-group lessons. This may show the teacher takes the facilitator role in Montessori classroom, instead of educator.…
