https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f In your groups, complete the following tasks about your chosen Specific Learning Disability en-us 2023-10-02 18:36:21 UTC 2023-10-04 13:52:57 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f4da.png wschleic https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099905 This week, you will be working in groups based upon your chosen disability. During each class, you will be given a set of criterion to follow to construct your own research and find resources to create a disability padlet. On Friday of this week, you will be teaching another group about your disability using the padlet you have created, which will lead into our second edition of the Who Am I? Demystification poster regarding Specific Learning Disabilities.

Tasks: Conduct your own research (I have given you a head start with the resource hub) on each of the subtopics for each day. As always, based on course policy, do not copy and paste. Quote, summarize, and paraphrase. For each subtopic, you will also be required to find two resources (videos, links, websites, pdfs, etc.) to assist and teach others. Provide a brief description for each of your resources as well.

Subtopics: In each subtopic, you will need the following:
- Defining, summarizing, quoting, or paraphrasing to give an understanding of each one.
- Two resources + an explanation of each one.]]> 2023-10-02 18:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099905 https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099907 Dyslexia is a learning disability within reading. It causes many people to struggle to read at the normal pace for their age.

It is also noted that 80 to 90 percent of kids have it with a learning disorder, but most kids go undiagnosed because of environmental factors. ]]> 2023-10-02 18:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099912 wschleic https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099915 Identify challenges in the following areas:

Outside of class, they struggle with rules of games and multi-step directions. It also messes with their mental and emotional stability.]]> 2023-10-02 18:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099920 https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099923 Dyslexia appears in many ways in different ages of development. In a very young age it appears as children talking late and developing words slowly. In children beginning school it will appear as the child reading way below the general level. In adults and teens, they may have trouble reading out loud and have difficulty finding the right words.]]> 2023-10-02 18:36:21 UTC https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099923 wschleic https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2729099926 Do/Can any other disabilities exist in addition to this primary diagnosis?

They also do many tests that are of early written languages. They get accommodations as such, verbal instruction, repetition of instruction, larger print, and many more. They have audio books to get them with assignments as well.

Problem solving with dyslexia can be very difficult at times. Many people have trouble reading and writing which is an every day task, therefor you have to find a way that helps you and every person may be different. Some things that may help are extra support in the classroom or even some therapy.

6. The social life with dyslexia is not a huge problem in the social world but some kids can be immature in comparison to their peers do to this disability. This can lead to a bad self-image or less peer acceptance.

7. Students with dyslexia can have independence support from many sources including apps on devices that may help them do things that they may not understand or just a little extra time on things could also help them.

An example of a mid tech devices would be an audio book so they can listen while they read to try and connect the words. Another example would be a digital scanning pen, this allows the student to go over the words with a pen and it reads aloud to them the words. This can be so beneficial because it can help the students learn the words while they read. 
A high tech device would be an education program that helps the student outside of class. Another one could be graphic organizers. The school will have a big impact on helping the students because they will have to work on having affect devices.

Families can help children with dyslexia by getting them the extra help they need by sending them to classes to help them read and with vocabulary. They can also meet with the child's teacher to discuss with them what they are seeing and get them help according to this. A barrier a parent can meet with this is stress because they don't know what to do or where to begin when finding children the help they need. They could find an app that helps read to them what they cannot understand themselves. 

2. One strategy I can recommend to parents is to give them different apps or websites that can help the child with these. issues. They can also help the child pronounce different words or help them through sentences they are struggling with. I can also recommend them to look into IEP for help and getting their child the right support they require.]]> 2023-10-04 13:45:42 UTC https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2732108639 https://padlet.com/wschleic/elhgu4sgbhcd6t6f/wish/2732120218 1. People with dyslexia can have trouble sounding out words, lack fluency compared to other kids their age, and can also reverse numbers and letters when reading. Sibling rivalry is very common in a home setting when one child has dyslexia because typically they're getting the most attention. People with dyslexia may also struggle with cooking, laundry, homework, cleaning, etc because it all involves reading.  I would suggest listening to audio books as an alternative to reading. 

2. A child with dyslexia may have a harder time regulating their emotions. There may be outbursts of anger, display of anxiety, and the lack of self confidence may increase. 

3. People with dyslexia may have trouble finding the right words or may pause before answering questions. People with dyslexia may struggle with communicating over devices like texting and emailing. 

4. Giving a voice to the students needs when he or she is unable to understand or express those needs himself or herself.
