learning disabilities there is a cure how to make sure that your child is
0:06
working at his full potential
0:08
this is the first in a series
0:11
entitled to developing fishermen
0:19
learning disabled children are children who indicated that the average to secure
0:22
your i_q_s but also have serious learning skill deficiencies
0:26
generally they are working to get to a two and half years below grade level
0:31
the basic learning skills our visual perception
0:34
visual memory
0:35
autry perception an auditory memory
0:38
if children are weak in any of these areas
0:41
it will affect the way they learn both in and out of school but particularly
0:44
with school related subjects
0:46
since the development of learning skills is not generally included in basic
0:50
school curriculums
0:52
many children especially learning disabled children find it difficult to
0:56
learn in the traditional school setting
0:59
in addition there those children who
1:02
are not what we we classify as learning disabled
1:05
who may have some learning skill weaknesses
1:07
and as a result
1:09
are not working up to their full potential
1:12
often these children perform well in school
1:14
but their teachers and parents know that they have been potential to do better
1:19
they are often the children who study for a test
1:22
and seem to know the material the night before
1:25
but on the day of the test experience difficulty remembering it
1:29
or they may appear to be listening attentively in class but when it comes
1:33
to remembering this material percy worker homework
1:36
cannot remember all of the terms and must spend time searching for the
1:40
answers
1:42
if children have a weakness
1:44
in one or more of the learning skill in areas
1:47
they can seriously affect their overall performance in school
1:51
i am going to speak to you about learning skill areas
1:55
how they affect children
1:57
and what can be done to help children so that they can learn is usually as any
2:01
other
2:02
children in their classroom
2:04
the first in the series
2:05
is the learning skills of visual memory
2:11
researchers have determined that eighty percent of all learning takes place by
2:14
means ab fissionable maulik
2:16
that means that the major part of what tilden learn in school
2:20
requires a need for good visual skill development
2:27
memory involves being able to look at a stimulus
2:30
such as a word
2:31
making image in your mind at that word and then recall it when it is no longer
2:35
present
2:36
for example of the teacher introduces a new word
2:39
she writes it on the talk board
2:41
the children might spell it
2:42
then read it
2:43
and use it in a sentence then the teacher erases it
2:48
now most children well having image of their mn in their mind of the word
2:52
but for a child with a visual memory deficiency once the word is erased
2:57
they might not be able to recognize the same word in your reader or history book
3:01
for example
3:03
or to recall the wordpress telling her writing
3:06
once it is erased it is gone
3:08
this poses a serious problems and causes students to have a very weak
3:13
safe appear gallery
3:14
very hard time with spelling and a very difficult time remembering terms on
3:19
tests
3:20
believe it or not even accused a child can have a weakness and one of the
3:24
learning skills
3:25
areas such as visual memory
3:27
and although they may be performing overall a very high level
3:31
they may have some weaknesses
3:35
keep them from learning with ease
3:37
for example is not uncommon to find a gifted child
3:40
who is a porous
3:43
now we know that seventy to seventy five percent
3:46
about english words can be spelled phonetically
3:49
but that the remainder cannot
3:51
so we have to recall them by you seem to learning skills visual her memory
3:56
i remember working with the young man in junior high school who was in the gifted
4:00
and talented program and rightly so
4:03
he was extremely bright
4:05
yeah whenever this child handed in his work
4:08
there were misspelled words ever
4:12
now this student was an excellent reader
4:14
and he had read the word were
4:16
thousands of times
4:18
yet when he spelled that he spelled it
4:20
as w hyatt are
4:21
w h_r_
4:23
or w eve are rarely w_t_i_ ricky
4:27
well he could remember terms for susser studies and science
4:30
he could not remember how to spell those terms
4:33
his visual recall of the detail
4:36
of words that is the individual letters in the word
4:39
this very poor
4:41
yours a call in the course of working with students who had serious visual
4:45
memory weaknesses i discovered that these children did not really look
4:50
at words
4:51
they did not focus on the detail of the words
4:54
that is the individual letters of the word when they red
4:57
and therefore did not hold the word in their mind
5:01
please stay with students were all
5:03
very poor spellers
5:05
however i also discovered
5:08
that there were some tilden who’d get focused on the individual letters of
5:11
words
5:12
but who are unable to view words in terms of their common word parts of
5:16
syllables
5:17
as a result word like interesting
5:21
was furious if it were either eleven separate units or letters instead of
5:25
four days of information this grouped into four syllables
5:29
these are the students who experience difficulty
5:32
developing a good site for cable airy and remembering terms for example for
5:36
sub sister decent science
5:39
researchers have determined
5:41
that the most recent take and in any one time is six units of information
5:47
so if you are trying to remember the bird interesting as if it were eleven
5:51
separate units of information or eleven letters
5:55
it is an impossible task
5:57
however
5:58
if you put you the word interesting
6:01
by grouping the letters into four syllables
6:03
than it is these each retain
6:06
so i began to tried various techniques to try to help children to develop
6:10
their visual recall
6:11
i get beat up on the technique that worked
6:14
and is my students progressed i realize that after three years i havent designed
6:19
an entire program to develop visual memory upwards
6:24
since most of what shown are faced with in school involves the recall of words
6:29
i found this to be extremely helpful and many areas but especially in the reading
6:34
writing
6:35
and spelling development
6:37
most young unwed gear
6:39
serious visual memory weaknesses need to be taught
6:42
within visual memory program that teaches the skill
6:46
starting at the letter span level but the child is at
6:49
and working up the step
6:50
by step for example
6:52
beef three-letter stand to a four-letter stand than a five exp
6:57
without the development of good visual memory skills it is extremely difficult
7:01
for children to learn with ease
7:04
with the development of visual memory
7:06
the learning about subjects becomes easier and as a result students develop
7:10
or competence and their ability
7:12
and our better able to work at their full potential
