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
2). Instead of searching for a better educational environment, students look for better tests numbers. Lang Wood goes on by stating “Students can easily become discouraged and negative about education in general, which affects their learning ability” (par. 2). In addition to what Lang Wood believes, Stephens claims, students who are taking the test suffer from stress in result of worrying about passing it.
Difficulty with reading and writing If a child is having problems with reading and writing this could cause concern. This could be recognised, as a child would be at a delayed rate to the rest of his/her peers. This could affect the child’s /young person’s behaviour/social development...Low self esteem and loss of confidence may be a result. With peers of the same being more advanced ridicule and bullying may result Learning to communicate is one of the main skills a child needs to help them develop in all areas. They can quickly fall behind from peers of the same age.
EDUC 302 Case Study 1 You have a student who is struggling with your synthetic approach to teaching phonics. Explain 3 alternative approaches to phonics instruction that you could use to help this student. Alternative #1: Linguistic Phonics Instruction, on page 231, is an approach that teaches unknown words by placing together sound-symbol patterns. For example, Dr. Seuss books use sound-symbol patterns and use the repetition of words that sound alike to teach new words. A good way to teach this to a child who is having problems with synthetic patterns, is to give them books, like Cat in the Hat by Dr. Seuss.
In fact, we argue that this type of instruction may inevitably consign children to a narrow, limited view of reading that is antithetical to their long-term success not only in school but throughout their lifetime. In other words, we believe that such instruction might actually undermine, rather than promote, the very goals of improving literacy learning. In contrast to this trend, this article highlights the key principles of early literacy as defined in the 1998 International Reading Association (IRA) and NAEYC
How to Teach Autistic Kids to Read Teaching autistic children reading skills is an important but sometimes frustrating job. If you have been trying to teach an autistic child to read with little or no success, or if you are thinking about starting to teach an autistic child to read, this article can give you some fresh ideas. Instructions Take a good inventory of how the child learns and what makes the child overwhelmed. Many children with autism spectrum disorders can be overwhelmed by their senses, whether it's from bright colors, strong smells or even noise. You must know the child's favorite things; this can be the key to teaching the child to read.
The study also proved that reading problems in middle elementary students requires a multi step process. The research stated that no single measure effectively defines whether a student is at risk.

BALANCED LITERACY PAPER A balanced literacy program includes aspects of literature-based instruction as well as phonics. Linda Chen and Eugenia Mora-Flores (2006) say that this approach “recognizes the complexities of the act of learning to read and the need to utilize multiple approaches because children learn differently.” There is no one-size-fit all strategy to teach children how to read and write, instead we need to find out the individual needs of each student and give them several strategies to work with. It is our job as educators to provide our children with meaningful opportunities for reading and writing. Before laying out an instruction outline, we need to define our goal. Every year teachers need to
Everything academic revolves around the year-end state testing to the point that other subjects are usually neglected. Reading, math and writing are the main thrusts of schools, and are obviously important. However, critics state that children are not receiving well-rounded educations because of the emphasis on these subjects
Then in an attempt to disguise the problem they are more likely to misbehave and disrupt the class. Eventually they leave school uneducated and struggle into adulthood. Therefore it is essential that teaching staff are able to recognise and respond to children that are showing signs of possible dyslexia as soon as possible. 'All the research shows that early diagnosis and support can help compensate children who are dyslexic, meaning they're not affected to such an extent,’ (Katrina
