Learning disabilities

There are multiple learning disabilities but the most common learning disability is dyslexia (Hallahan, D., Kauffman, J., & Pullen, P. (2015)). Dyslexia involves someone who has reading and writing disabilities (Hallahan, D., Kauffman, J., & Pullen, P. (2015)). Someone who has dyslexia might suffer from other learning disabilities as well (Hallahan, D., Kauffman, J., & Pullen, P. (2015)). Dyslexia has a wide area of issues within the learning disability spectrum (Hallahan, D., Kauffman, J., &…

In addition to race and ethnicity, the following factors can work against students, such as socioeconomic status and whether a child is proficient in the English language…

First, I chose the disability: Dyslexia. I know many students, friends, and family with the disorder and even though I know the generalities of Dyslexia, I am still a notice at intervention techniques to help an individual with the disorder.

Specific learning difficulties are often identified in this way such as Dyslexia, AHAD, Dyspraxia. Support and targets for the child are then set to help them achieve.

The first learning disability I will inform about is dyslexia a sort of reading and writing disability. Dyslexia is a common condition that affects the way the brain processes written and spoken language.

It often runs in ancestries. The signs of dyslexia may include; the individual may read slowly and…

her experience with a disabled student. It surprised me to hear that the disability was blindness. The ministry of Education favors the integration of special needs students. However, I never thought it meant blind children. It made me realize that I could encounter a similar situation too. Similarly to Lydia, I use a lot of visuals. I appreciated that she shared her ideas of using real objects to facilitate the child’s learning. She said that she asked the other students to say the French word…

I believe that interaction between disabled and non disabled is something that would help their learning and social skills. Many strongly disagree with excluding these disabled children from many activities that “normal” kids participate in.As this problem becomes more known, hopefully the unfair way disabled kids are treated can be stopped.
