We need to be mindful of this when teaching students with LD and make sure they know that we are on their side so that they don’t feel like it is themselves against the world!]]> 2019-04-04 20:36:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723234 https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723312 Giving parents ideas and resources for differentiating and accommodating at home.

A LD can impact various different aspects of that child’s life. I loved how my article made the distinction that a child with an LD isn’t lazy or dumb, their brains are wired differently.  ]]> 2019-04-04 20:37:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723520 https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723605 When I will be in an IEP meeting and we are diagnosing a student with a learning disability, I would want to come more than prepared with information on what that SLD is. This could help to ease the mind of parents when they are in the meeting because they will know exactly what it is. ]]> 2019-04-04 20:38:03 UTC https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723605 https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723717 One resource I will apply is keeping in mind the cultural aspect in special education. I feel often times we jump to separate the two rather then accepting that there are situations where they both need to have a balance. Keeping in mind strategies in dealing with families while respecting and understanding culture will result in a more authentic learning ]]> 2019-04-04 20:38:26 UTC https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723717 https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723746 Thoughts On LD & Culture
Be aware of what culture each student comes from and then make decisions that will consider these differences. Never neglect the students home life or background because this is where they have come from. (Common differences: personal space, tone of voice, authority, eye contact) ]]> 2019-04-04 20:38:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mkllyclark/lddiscussion/wish/348723746
