Many children with disabilities usually need more structured and clearly amorphous surroundings, also behaviorally, than a general education classroom can offer. ADHD’s basic signs for children with an ADHD are lack of concentration, hyperactivity, and impulsivity causes child children to cope with day to day school challenges (Zentall, 1993). Children with ADHD have trouble sustaining attention to stay on task; this causes them to miss important details on their assignments, distraction during class activities and difficulty organizing assignments. According to doctor (Russell Barkley), he said that “children with ADD/ADHD have the tendency to fall behind about 30 percent, when it comes to their developmental performance.” In fact, the NIH
Health Chronic conditions such as asthma can cause children to have time off school, infections like meningitis causes development delay. Disability Cerebral palsy can result in brain damage and can cause problems with mobility. Sensory impairment Hearing difficulties are one of the most common causes of language delay and speech problems in young children. Learning difficulties Down syndrome can result in development delay , learning difficulties and health problems. Family background can effect a child's development by the family's values the culture and the way the child is encouraged and cared for all can effect the child development.
Parents and children may need help to overcome the bad feelings. Mental health professionals can educate parents about ADHD and how it impacts a family. They also will help the child and his or her parents develop new skills, attitudes, and ways of relating to each other. Downs Syndrome Down syndrome, also known as Down’s syndrome, is a genetic condition that usually causes some level of learning disability and a range of physical features. Most babies born with Down syndrome are diagnosed after birth and will be likely to have hypotonia which is reduced muscle tone leading to floppiness, eyes that slant upwards and outwards, palmar crease which is when their palm may have only one crease across it, a below average weight and length at birth.
The students will demonstrate a deficiency in language and or communication. Some of the characteristics are the cognitive performances which includes the students memory and attention, intellectual consisting of academics and adaptive behavior which includes but is not limited to appropriate social interaction, activities of daily living such as getting dress, brushing own hair, and other activities that may be need to function in the day to day living. In looking at the cognitive performance, many students with ID have delays in language and academics which we will discuss at a later time. However, in the
Roxana Useda ENC 1101 Professor Cash November 30, 2012 Why Trust the FCAT? Have you ever felt when taking the FCAT you are wasting your time? Over the years students have been required to take a test that will evaluate them on how well they do. The FCAT is given to obtain an insight on how much students are learning on three main subjects, science, reading, and math every year. Despite the benefits teachers and schools obtain, standardized testing like the FCAT is not effective in evaluating student’s performance because not all students learn at the same level, they fall under pressure, and they are being taught just for the test which prevents from learning skills that are yet to be learned.
And some young people and children may be abused or exploited so, they need to look after away from their families. The reasons are as follows: 1) Bereavement: most look after children will have experienced so many disruptions in their lives. This may include painful experiences such as family bereavement. As a result the children’s education may become affected and they may be below their expected class average. This will have caused from poor concentration, the child may also need specific help in their work and class before any sort of progress can be made.
Another common issue might be their language and cognitive skills. Problems with their speech, understanding words, talking problem solving, memory, attention, problem solving, and judgment can all be affected by TBI. These students might also have a hard time staying focused and might be disorganized in their work and/or thoughts. Behavioral problems is also a common symptom of TBI. The student can have withdrawal from their peers and many social problems such as anxiousness and depression (Yeates,
A 12-24 month old child who has not developed their speech properly may struggle to express their feelings, thoughts and emotions and as result may have behavioural problems such as increased number of unnecessary tantrums. Children may hit or bite as a way of expressing anger, some children bite when they are happy. In this situation is best for adults to encourage their speech by providing words associated with their emotions so that they may learn to say what they are feeling instead of acting their emotions out. 12-24 Months Effect of physical on social development. If a child of 12-24 months has a physical hindrance, such as a disability, this could have a knock on effect on their social development.
Assessment and Educational Interventions for Students with LD Vernice Blackaby Grand Canyon University: SPE 359 Characteristics of Learning Disabilities and Strategies to Teach Individuals with LD May 19, 2013 Assessment and Educational Interventions for Students with LD According to the Learning Disabilities Association of America a learning disability is a “neurological condition that interferes with a person’s ability to store, process, or produce information” (Learning Disabilities Association of America, n.d.). A learning disability (LD) can affect a student’s ability to write, read, spell, figure out math, social skills, attention, and memory. Students with LDs will have a difficult time in school and will find it hard to succeed therefore it is important to find ways to detect the type of disability and then find ways to help the student. Unlike physical handicaps or disabilities like mental retardation and autism, to name a few, LDs cannot be seen and might go undetected. But with the right type of help, students with LDs can succeed and do well in school and life.
For students who aren’t sure exactly what they want to do, they can take a variety of classes so that maybe they can find something they are interested in. But if there were a lot of classes needed to graduate then by the time each student is done with all these classes, they are forced to take classes aimed towards their major. But one major flaw with this system is that sometimes students can become too focused in their major. Students may take electives that somehow tie into their major. Then they will have a very narrow minded education.
