In other words, a learning disability results from difference in the way a person's brain is "wired." Children with learning disabilities are as smart or smarter than their peers. But they may have difficulty reading, writing, spelling, reasoning, recalling and/or organizing information if left to figure things out by themselves or if taught in conventional ways. ]]> 2019-05-19 12:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361480151 aparkermiller https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361480648 2019-05-19 12:17:21 UTC https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361480648 aparkermiller https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361481166 It is a learning disorder that impedes the student's ability to read and comprehend a text.

It can range from an inability to order numbers correctly and extend to limited strategies for problem solving. Students with math disorders may have trouble performing basic math calculations, or they may have difficulty with concepts like time, measurement or estimation. ]]> 2019-05-19 12:34:22 UTC https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361482032 aparkermiller https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361482239 Dysgraphia can be related to the physical act of writing.  These students often cannot hold a pencil correctly, and their posture may be tense while trying to write.  This leads them to tire easily, causing discouragement that further inhibits progress.  
Dysgraphia can also refer to difficulty with written expression.  Students have trouble organizing their thoughts coherently.  
Dysgraphia may also cause students to struggle with basic sentence structure and grammatical awareness. ]]> 2019-05-19 12:36:57 UTC https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361482239 aparkermiller https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361482780 Students have trouble making sense of sensory data. This makes it hard for students to perform in a traditional classroom without instructional supports. These deficits are most often auditory or visual, and they can make it hard for students to distinguish and remember important information that is needed to succeed. ]]> 2019-05-19 12:43:14 UTC https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361482780 aparkermiller https://padlet.com/aparkermiller/n78lb3o9azcv/wish/361483334 Learning disorders in reading are usually based on difficulty perceiving a spoken word as combination of distinct sounds.  This can make it hard to understand how a letter or letters represent a sound and how letter combinations make a word. 
Problems with working memory - the ability to hold and manipulate information in the moment.
