Question 2: Are they ashamed or scared to communicate in areas he is weaker in?

# data[].attributes.body
Children with learning disabilities are highly stressed and scared by the lack of understanding of the social events and exceptions in which they must function.(i.e. missing language/verbal inputs)

Ashamed to speak out or ask for assistance for fear of being differentiated/belittled in front of their peer.

They are least likely to process verbal/non-verbal information when they are ashamed or scared.

Afraid of others reacting to their ability to "keep up" to the point of purposefully pretending to have a severe disability to ease off the pressure in some cases

Afraid of new experiences overall, refusal to engage

Yes if they are constantly ridiculed, corrected, and have their mistakes emphasized over their triumphs they will become scared of even trying.

When the areas they are weaker in are also associated with past traumas.

If the child builds a level of trust and respect with their school staff and the supports provided to them. The student is able to utilize and gain a positive experience from both the educators working with them and the supports.

Students can only be involved in their own programming if we nurture their passion for it

Adults need to make the effort to help the student get involved first

Struggles in the classroom can cause children to doubt their abilities and their strengths.

For children with learning disabilities, self-awareness(strengths, weaknesses, and special talents) and self-confidence are very important.

Encourage them to join activities that are within their capabilities and develop their strengths and passion, providing accommodations and modification to meet their learning needs.
