Their learning rate may be different then their peers. Their memory may not be as strong and may need to do tasks multiple times to remember. The child’s attention may be not as long as peers and may need more breaks throughout the day. Finally, due to past failures their motivation to learn may be less due to past experiences(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 115-116).]]> 2019-11-17 14:19:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354120 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354348   For a mild intellectual disabilities this may not be identified until the child starts his school years. For moderate disabilities this would be identified during the early stages of school of the child and the gap between other students will be more prevalent later in their schooling career. For sever or profound disabilities these will be diagnosed right away or before the schooling years begin as well as, may have other disabilities(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 115).]]> 2019-11-17 14:21:07 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354348 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354392  Prenatal causes of intellectual disabilities are Chromosomal disorders. Single-gene disorders, syndromes, metabolic disorders, cerebral dysgenesis, maternal illnesses, and parental age. Perinatal causes of intellectual disabilities are prematurity, birth injury, and neonatal disorders. Postnatal causes of intellectual disabilities are traumatic brain injury, malnutrition, meningoencephalitis, seizure disorders, and degenerative disorders(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 122).]]> 2019-11-17 14:21:28 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354392 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354501   One of the most effective methods is task analysis which breaks down bigger tasks down to smaller multistep tasks. Another is the active student response which is important for students with disabilities to have an active participation. Functional curriculum is another effective instructional method for students with disabilities this can be useful when teaching students everyday skill such as taking public transportation, how to order food, and banking.( (Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 127-130).]]> 2019-11-17 14:21:56 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354501 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354539 Three components of  a learning disabilities are inconsistency in the students intellectual ability and school success, disabilities is not due to another known condition that can cause difficulty in learning, and the student has a need for special education(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p 144.). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:22:16 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354539 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354558  In general characteristics of a child with a learning disability are some sort of reading problem. Which can be some sort of reading comprehension or a phonemic awareness. As well as, another characteristic is a written language deficit. These can be the child’s mechanics when writing. It can also be a difficulty of putting the information from the child’s head to the paper( Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 147-148). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:22:32 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354558 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354611 The cause of these disabilities are not known. However, some believe that brain damage, heredity, and enviormental factors may be a cause of learning disabilities(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 154). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:22:55 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354611 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354643 There are a few placements for students with learning disabilities one is general education classroom which means they stay mainstreamed and are kept with their peers. Consultant teacher is another option which is a teacher that gives support to the teachers and other staff that will have contact with the child that will help with teaching and behavior methods that will help the child reach their full potential. A third option is resource room which is a room that a student will go to for a few periods a day that will give a more individualized instruction in class they are struggling with. Finally, a separate classroom is an option for a student with an learning disability which is a classroom with a smaller class size so that the student will get more attention from the teacher(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 173-174). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:23:11 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354643 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354675 The key components in defining emotional disturbance or behavior disorders are not being able to learn without being described because of intellectual, sensory, and health factors. Not being able to keep or make relationships with peers and teachers. Unfitting behaviors or feeling in normal interactions. Depression or growth of fears related to school or other problems(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 182). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:23:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354675 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354732 Factors associated with the disability are biological factors that can be from some imbalance in the brain, the child’s genetics, or the temperament of the child. Other factors are environmental factors which can range from home life, school interactions, or the community pressures(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 192-194). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:23:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354732 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354766  Externalized characteristics: Get out of their seat, tell, talk out, and curse, disturb peers, hit or fight, ignore the teacher, steal, lie, destroy property, temper tantrums, and are noncompliant. Internalized behaviors are anxiety disorder, phobias, OCD, Eating disorders, PTSD, selective mutism,  mood disorders, depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, and Tourette syndrome(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 184-186).]]> 2019-11-17 14:24:04 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354766 lewis_k16103 https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354831  The placement options for students with emotional disturbance or behavior disorders are general education in classes. Some sort of more restrictive setting depending on the academic expectations in general education classroom(Heward, Alber, &Konrad, 2019, p. 212). ]]> 2019-11-17 14:24:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lewis_k16103/cep3ah008fix/wish/412354831
