A few more to mention…Visual ImpairmentHearing ImpairmentCognitive Impairment

The “Hidden” ImpairmentSpecific learning disabilities are often called
“hidden impairments” because from looking at the person and talking to the person, they appear “normal” (whatever normal is….)
The fact that their disability is hidden can actually be a HUGE disadvantage to the child, since others may erroneously think that the child is lazy, not trying, etc…..
![Page 16: Week Two Agenda: Review Portfolio Project Writing Prompt (attendance) Special Ed Categories—PowerPoint FAT City video LD Simulations Questions/Comments?](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649ca15503460f9495fb8f/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Fair does not equal SameBeing fair means providing what each
student NEEDS.Being fair does not mean treating everyone
the same, since not everyone needs the same things.
Giving equal treatment means leveling the playing field so all students have an equal opportunity to grow, learn and be successful.
![Page 17: Week Two Agenda: Review Portfolio Project Writing Prompt (attendance) Special Ed Categories—PowerPoint FAT City video LD Simulations Questions/Comments?](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649ca15503460f9495fb8f/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
LD Instructional Strategies Allow more time for student to complete work Break assignments up into manageable chunks Allow student to utilize technology (audio books/speech recording
software/computer access etc…) Teach using multiple formats that allow each student to learn through
their particular learning style Use mnemonics and other memory tricks Model steps as you teach Allow guided practice before asking student to show mastery
independently Give SPECIFIC Praise OFTEN! Have consistent routines and procedures Allow students to correct errors on assignments and tests to ensure
mastery and to earn some points back Accept late work – even if only for ½ credit – zeroes KILL
![Page 18: Week Two Agenda: Review Portfolio Project Writing Prompt (attendance) Special Ed Categories—PowerPoint FAT City video LD Simulations Questions/Comments?](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649ca15503460f9495fb8f/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Learning DisabilitiesBottom line = Instructional strategies that
are good for special ed students are good for ALL students.
Special ed/At-risk/ELL students MAY need more intensive versions of the strategies.
![Page 19: Week Two Agenda: Review Portfolio Project Writing Prompt (attendance) Special Ed Categories—PowerPoint FAT City video LD Simulations Questions/Comments?](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022070415/56649ca15503460f9495fb8f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The BIG IdeaYou will have special ed students in your classesIt is your job to teach them and help them become
successful individualsDiversity is good = all will benefitDon't assume you know everything about the student
- especially if you weren't that kind of learnerBE FLEXIBLEBE FAIR Fair = give what is NEEDEDWhat is good for special ed students is what is good
for ALL students

LD Simulation ActivitiesIf you don’t really feel up to it today, or find
as you are going that you don’t want to do these activities – TOO BAD!

ACTIVITY 1Reading and Decoding– how hard can it be?
p d q b
This activity shows what it is like to read as a LD child
Even if you can decode something, it doesn’t mean comprehension is there.

ACTIVITY 2Perceiving vs. Seeing
You can see the picture but you can’t perceive it. You need direct instruction from the teacher.
There’s a difference b/w vision and perception. You can see it but you can’t bring meaning to it until I tell you what it is.
