appropriate strategies with learning disabled students

            Teaching learning disabled youngsters will present you with some unique and distinctive challenges. Not only will these students demand more of your time and patience; so, too, will they require specialized instructional strategies in a structured environment that supports and enhances their learning potential. It is important to remember that learning disabled students are not students who are incapacitated or unable to learn; rather, they need differentiated instruction tailored to their distinctive learning abilities. 

there are some tips to use....

• Provide oral instruction for students with reading disabilities. Present tests and reading materials in an oral format so the assessment is not unduly influenced by lack of reading ability.
• Give immediate feedback to learning disabled students. They need to see quickly the relationship between what was taught and what was learned.
• Make activities concise and short, whenever possible. Long, drawn-out projects are particularly frustrating for a learning disabled child.
• Learning disabled youngsters have difficulty learning abstract terms and concepts. Whenever possible, provide them with concrete objects and events—items they can touch, hear, smell, etc.
• Learning disabled students need and should get lots of specific praise. Instead of just saying, “You did well,” or “I like your work,” be sure you provide specific praising comments that link the activity directly with the recognition; for example, “I was particularly pleased by the way in which you organized the rock collection for Karin and Miranda.”
• When necessary, plan to repeat instructions or offer information in both written and verbal formats. Again, it is vitally necessary that learning disabled children utilize as many of their sensory modalities as possible.
• Encourage cooperative learning activities (seeTeaching with Cooperative Learning) when possible.Invite students of varying abilities to work together on a specific project or toward a common goal. Create an atmosphere in which a true “community of learners” is facilitated and enhanced.

little words about gifted children

The Gifted children are extraordinary, over clever, and they only have a good in a certain skills. These children also represent the other extreme on the continuum of academic, social and scientific abilities. This children also need special education opportunities if they are to reach their potential. If we neglect their potential maybe this children lost their opportunities to have a good things in their future. We can identified them by their behaviors such as they has a wide range of interest, they are really anxious to try new things, they seems very alert and gives rapid answers. Other than that, they also has really good self confidence and can solve problem ingeniously. 

Special need children and the gifted children are different but we cannot treat them as different like them. Special need children they still a children like a normal children. They does not need a special treatment. But they need acceptance from all people around them. While the gifted children is a gift from creator to us. We have to find their precious natural resource so that we won't lose something worth from them.

example children with special needs

There a many type of special needs children in this school. ( here ) The most disabilities is slow learner. The other types is cerebral palsy, hyperactive, down syndrome, communication disorder and so on....

First my group and I enter mathematics class which is only two student inside. Who their name is Ifwat faris and Auf.  Both is 10 years old. Ifwat have hyperactive. He was jumping up and down, not sit still, disturbed his teacher and friends, injuring himself and also his friend. He need a full care and attention to prevent him from injuring himself. From what the teacher said, it is was enough if he can be sit quietly only for a while. When he is injured, the teacher or his parents rub the medicine on the wound but did not last long because he was digging wound back. So the wound will never be better or if the wound cure another lesion arising. This child had a therapy but the teacher not sure what kind of therapy he had at home. During rest time. This child cannot eat or if he ate he need a teacher to watch him. Usually he only eat when he back at his home. This child also climbing his house grill. Second child name Auf, have cerebral palsy, cannot communicate and stubborn. But, he is friendly with new people. This child know when his teacher scold him. He also need need a attention.

            Next, we went to another classes. There are five student at all. Nabilah hanum have down syndrome problem, second Amirah Sofea have slow learner problem and cannot talk. Third is Zulaikha and Athirah also have same problem with Amirah. The last one is Danial. Danial have Dysathria, hearing problem and use hearing aids as his impairment. When, we enter the classes. The class just has start. The teacher given a worksheets to them. They need to color the paper given. The teacher said that the children would not be finished coloring. But unfortunately all of them finished the activity very well. The first person finished was Daniel. He look focus on what he is doing. He recognizes the color name well. He can hear what I am asking him even if he use   the hearing aids. He cannot talk well but he is trying to talk. Surprisingly that he can answer my question and not giving up talking even if it is seemed difficult to say. His smile and the baby faces he had made us calm.

            Next we went to another classes. We meet another types of children. At this class we meet Amar. He had the same problem with danial. He is also have dysphasia. Cannot talk because of his health, cannot eat, but only drink milk every 3 hour. His mother will come to the school every 3 hour to maintain his health and taking care and giving him drink milk. He was slow learner and never liked to hold a pencil.

            During rest time, we meet another children at canteen. He is Abdul Razak. 10 years old. He taking a normal school and classes. He is not include in special need class even if he have physical problem and using wheelchair. This child is clever more than a normal child. His taking his meal with other normal friend.  He look happy with his friend. This show that, this school might be provide inclusive education for this types of children.

            After rest time we went to music classes. There is a group of down syndrome and one  slow learner children who are singing and dancing. They are creative when dancing even if the words that they say were not clear. One of the song is Boboboy. This show that they do not miss their childhood time from watching TV channel.

the best part is... each of us get certificate from the sk raja muda school principle...

There are 9 classses for special need children at this school. This is integrated school for special education. One station for one teacher is the best strategies for the children. This will let children be accompanied by teacher if the other teacher absent in a day.

The children will not staying at the same place during teaching and learning. They will have moving classes following by the subject they taking. As example at 8.30 am  to 9.00am this children learn bahasa melayu but after 30 minute they will moving another class which is muzik for another 30 minute and so for the next.

This special need children not only stay with their groups. This school let them be with others children. Such as in during breakfast at canteen, celebration like Hari Raya, Merdeka, or festival. They also join sports and family day together with the others children. They also will be together during awards day, Assemble before the rest time and after the rest time. The classes also will be mixed following their IQ level. This school also has been visited by school attack.

Furthermore, the school and the teacher also plan the visit to science center with special need children. This is for sure will letting this children become more knowledgeable and be themselves also brave to meeting others people. Other main reason is to let people know that this children also need acceptance among each other and taking care about them in present or future. Other than that, the school also will make a therapy for the children and invite the best coach for them.

The special need children class have two program education, that is KBSR and KSSR. The class opened every day except Saturday and Sunday. Every Thursday, Friday and Monday  at 7:30 am to 12:30 pm which is KBSR class. while Tuesday and Wednesday at 7.30am to 1:00 pm that is KSSR class. Every week have four time or six time will be repeating the subject depends also by the subjects.

The school facilities provide the wheelchair route, playground, different toilet, cumulative materials, numbers, shape, puzzle, therapy room, table and chair, computer, and so on for the children. In fact, this is still not enough for the children to learn. They need a variety of materials for letting them play with through learning. Some of the material or a facility is the contribution from the PIBG, parents, Ngo, government and school. They had giving donate the therapy room.

There is a method to communicate with the children who had hyperactive problem. The teacher usually use music as a method to make this child quiet. Music is like a therapy for the child. Other than that, the teacher will prepared the lesson plan, worksheets and games for them. The teacher also use technology for the children to attract them to learn. But this technology would not using for children at the stage one. The children also will play using a number block or alphabet after finished the worksheets. From the teacher words, usually the syllabus would never be finished for children at the stage one. The teacher also would not focus on academic but more on activity.. syllabus example number one. To teach this children might be use over than one year. this taking a long time to teach them number one or the alphabet A to Z.

modification of play with special needs

The teacher need to simplified activities. The teacher also need to take a part in activities. Not only watching them play. When the teacher play with them. This can help them to continue play and encourage them to learn more. Second is, special equipment, those children who are handicapped. Especially using wheelchair or need a body support. They also want to play at the playground like other normal children. So the equipment should be change, the facilities and material also should be change. let them play also. Create another equipment only for them. Change to the physical environment, this might be include traffic areas,specific quiet areas additional light, and accessible playground surfacing. Last one is, positive comment, peer support or adult support.

special parenting for parents

          Children a one of the greatest gifts in life also require a tremendous amount of work. If your gifts comes in in a package with special needs, then the path can be even more difficult, yet more rewarding all at the same time. Parenting requires a delicate balance of patience, support, love and discipline, no matter who the child is. Those parents with a special needs child sometimes face a more difficult challenge. There is so much guilt associated with parenting and especially with a special needs child. When you are told that your child has any disability, or handicap it is easy to fall into the trap of feeling guilty.

There is an important factor to consider however. A different perception of the special needs child is important when beginning to evaluate your parenting style. Many special needs children become spoiled. This is not meant to offend any parents or child, because it is said with all the love in the heart of any parent. Parents don't mean to spoil their children, but those with special needs appear to be so helpless and disadvantaged, it is easy to make this mistake. it is true of anyone involved with the care of the special needs children, including their teachers, caregivers and medical professionals.

Each child is an individual. It is very important that you do not group your child into a specific category based on their diagnosis and on medical statistics. It is important not to give up on your child because of some standard limits or expectancy rates. Every child holds within themselves unlimited power. Expect good behavior, success and positive results from your child and give them every opportunity to achieve everything the world offers them. It is hard to do, but refrain from comparing your child to others. Allow them to be unique and display individualism. Let them experience their own unlimited power that they possess as an individual.

Encouragement is important for every child's success and well being. Let them reach for the stars and never give up. Hope is the major backbone for success. Expect success, and no no limits, and you will see the best results. Children bring about the greatest joy and the greatest challenges in life. Parenting requires a careful balance of love, patience and discipline.

The term of special need children teachers

Special need Teacher spent their most of their working day providing instruction and dealing with unexpected as well as routine situations. They work hard with children who have physical or development disabilities, hearing ,visual, speech or language disabilities, learning disabilities, behavior disorders or mental illness and high intelligence or talent.

Special education teachers must be organized, patient, able to motivate students, understanding of their students' special needs, and accepting of differences in others. All States require teachers to be licensed; traditional licensing requires the completion of a special education teacher training program and at least a bachelor's degree, although some States require a master's degree. Many States offer alternative licensure programs to attract college graduates who do not have training in education. Excellent job prospects are expected due to rising enrollments of special education students and reported shortages of qualified teachers.

Special need children must understand the unique characteristics of each student and choose or develop appropriate instructional programs and methods. Teaching technique and methods very with the particular disability or special talent but, in general, special need teachers.

·         Work closely with parents and professional from community agencies.

·         Perform diagnostic assessment to determine student strength and are of need.

·         Develop educational goals, objective and individualized program plans.

·         Choose or develop specially design instructional methods and materials.

·         Prepare and present lessons.

For example special need teacher may teach all or most subjects for a class of children who have a variety of disability or a particular type of difficulties and meet with students from regular school classrooms on an individual basis or in small groups and work in co-operation with classrooms teacher to help children who have learning disability language deficiencies or academic deficiencies.

- introduction -

The special need children are the children who are really unique and has potencies to success like other normal children too. It was depends on what we do to them now for make sure that in the future they can live independently  depends on by themselves. These children need help from people surrounding around them. Especially their parents, family members and their teachers at their school. As a human being we cannot deny what had been created by God. We must appreciated them, share and show our love, never neglect them because of their scarcity. From that, our life would be more bless from the Creator.

Special needs can be caused by many factors. Birth injury, genetics, or causes we do not understand can cause a child to be labeled special needs. Someone who has slight learning disabilities as well as those who are suffering from severe retardation are all lumped together. A child who has food allergies as well as someone who has heart defects can be included in this broad range of a special needs label.

Children with special needs are different, but still wonderfully loving and fun to be around. More understanding needs to take place so there is no judgment or fear of being around these children. This will be especially true as the incidence of autism rises. Unlike other special needs children, these children often look perfectly normal but often display strange behavior. Hopefully the world can soon be educated about the sweet children and wonderfully lives that special needs represent. These children will also get the treatment they need when their parents understand all of the great therapies that are available for them.
