Learning Disabilities in Reading and Math

Children who could not read or write is usually caused by a habit instilled by his family. For example, the less attention the child's father and her mother busy at work and they only have "tired time" given to her son. Automatically when the child is not able to learn them so vent anger and disappointment and fatigue while in office. It is not fair not when we demand our children too much?

Children who love reading and writing are usually accustomed to love to read or view the figure of her parents love to read, this kid will be good at reading in a short age. Stimulated by giving an interesting picture books.
To practice writing, requiring child motor skills such as kneading, cutting and other hand skills. Let him explore to what he has held such as washing clothes, shining shoes and others.
Invite him to wear his own clothes, do not you admonished when he made a mistake. That's normal. Are not adults too often make a mistake?

Mathematics learning disabilities vary widely depending on the strength and the intellect of children. Children's ability to do mathematics will be affected differently by language learning disabilities, or visual abnormalities or difficulties with the order, or organizational memory.
A child with a learning-based mathematics disorder may struggle with rote organization and numbers, operation signs, and the number "facts" (such as 2 2 = 4 or 2x2 = 4). Children with mathematics learning disabilities may also experience problems with the principle counting principles or having difficulty telling the time.

Children who suffer from autism, Down syndrome and neurological or cognitive disorders often have learning disabilities. Some children go to special schools while others went to regular public schools. Children who have a learning disability can not perform well when they are taught in the same medium as everyone else. Therefore, they end up not studying, or performing badly.


Special schools often have a different curriculum for these children and also a different teaching methods. However, it is very difficult to teach children who have learning disabilities. Psychiatrists often recommend that children are much better with recreational therapy.

Children with learning disabilities often have difficulty understanding and reading the numbers or the alphabet. They sometimes even look like a mirror image of letters and numbers. That is why they do not do well in their studies and are often referred to as suffering from dyslexia. Such children should be taught in different ways.

After research and the results of consolidation, experts have created a tool to learn with the help of mental mathematics, abacus and phonetics to help children with learning disabilities to learn mathematics and language. By using the techniques and tools is to teach children how to use it, teachers can allow children to learn in their own way and at their own pace.

Learning English for your Children

As parents we should understand that the power of comprehension of children compared with adults, far different. Why? Because learning English is easier for children when compared with adults. Adults require a special time to learn English, but for the child listening habits of the English language, without realizing it will be packed by the time he grows up to provide convenience in learning English. And do not forget the children easily adapt to the environment, he can easily understand the language of his friends.

Children will quickly catch what is heard and seen, and will be embedded the wild subconscious. In time this subconscious memory will come back when there are triggers. Because children easily grasp what is happening around them, as parents we have to pick out a good environment for our children.

Have you ever counted how many hours a day your child in front of the television? With a variety of reasons, and advances in technology today, is undeniable childhood the child is acquainted with the medium of television. In contrast to earlier times, our first busy with the games that we make themselves available by toy that involves natural and other physical activity.

The policy we as parents here highly charged, how to direct the child to get a quality spectacle. Seeing today many television shows that "less" to educate children (under five). Many events that cater to teenagers and adults. There are also events for children under five, but only a few per cent of television viewing. Sometimes due to our ego as a parent, when we look at the actual event is not meant for our children who are toddlers, we also invite our children to watch. Sometimes our children are more familiar to the characters who watched from the us ... too much violence contained in television, such as yelling, fighting, indecent talk and more.

Learning English for children, given these circumstances it would be wise if we provide an alternative to the spectacle of children under five us. Our sensitivity is needed against our children must be kept, should not be because television is now already a part of our lives, we are affected and assume all may see every television show.

To anticipate this problem try to subscribe to pay TV, because the pay-TV events actually divided into various segments and with certain criteria. Chanel for the children so special for children, sport to sport channel, channel for adults for adults. But indeed we recognize that pay TV is expensive compared with local television.

Another alternative is to buy the vcd / dvd player. Now that these tools are numerous and are not expensive anymore, then we can buy the cd education for children, cd, etc. knowledge. To train the English language we try to buy a introduction english, with the more familiar a child listening to the English language undoubtedly will make it easier later on when the big kids to master English.

Good luck

Learning disorders in children in review

Learning disorders in children (learning disorders in children) is the state of someone who is having trouble in one or more areas of the intelligentsia. This learning disorders can be caused by developmental disorder resulting in impaired function of intelligence. The uniqueness, strengths, and characteristics of these children who were difficult for parents, and later when she went to school teachers will also find it difficult to see a variety of developmental disorders, as well as the need in particular in educational methods, requires a large amount of knowledge and patience to explain what the child want.

Generally, children who have delayed speech and learning disorders are trapped in the diagnosis of autism, even if indeed they have symptoms similar to autism, but not infrequently also mixed up their diagnosis with Asperger's autism or autistic Savant. Two kinds of autism which is a threat to the elderly.

Autism Asperger there that have a high IQ (but not experience delays in speaking), and Savant autism have great talent (but very large disturbance in the area of intelligence.

If tested psychology, children who have learning disorders or have a talent show is not harmonious intelligence profiles, test results will be very high in the performance of abstraction and logic analysis capability, but fall behind in verbal skills.

The difficulties that often follow into adulthood is a disorder in regulating short-term memory memorization skills. Audiology call with auditory processing disorder (APD). That is not the ear is disturbed, but the information in the brain is interrupted, so they often look like a child deaf or gape when to talk and do not respond if called. In the end result to lag behind in speech and language development.

Other developmental disorders that accompany the moment is infant disconnect development. Developing gross motor great, but fine motor behind. Ability to develop visual is great, but susceptible to interference in the reception of information through the ear.
These children also experienced the development of sensory disorders, such as touch sensors are very sensitive so disgusted with things wet and soft, often do not respond to the call but was too sensitive to noise and easily aroused at the sound.

Sometimes these children are very brave, but also very timid. He has periods of intense concentration, but also sometimes look like children can not concentrate and hyperactivity so often get stuck in the diagnosis of children with concentration problems or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).


Because these children are often in diagnoses of autism or DHD plus special characteristics, they are often recommended to a special school for carrying a total IQ score is low (because in harmonic which then averaged), or inserted into the slow class which actually wrong because the Basically they are a very quick thinker.

It takes appropriate treatment for children who have learning disorders. When he was a public school, he was soon expelled because teachers overwhelmed, considered to interrupt the lesson, and the school did not understand the material and what methods can be given to him.

In mathematics lesson they generally get good numbers, but not on memorizing lessons.

They are considered to be very emotional, stubborn, and unruly. Moreover, followed by writing bad because it's weak fine motor, punishment given is not only enough physical punishment such as Time Out in front of the class, also subjected to psychological punishment, that is scolded and finally figure circumcised.
It's tough to be a teacher and the parents .......

In fact, they are a group of children at risk, they need the support of education that do not support will only cause more difficult problems, namely the child fall into a state of frustration, depression, loss of confidence, negative self-concept development, behavior problems arise, or arise suicidal idealization .....

If parents are difficulties facing these children is the confusion is natural. Faced with the professionals, like doctors and psychologists, just get a piece of explanation, not even a cohesiveness to say how the child. Coupled confusion looking for schools that want to accept. The school has also experienced confusion. Moreover, the science of learning disabilities has not been popular among teachers. Likewise, psychological characteristics of gifted children is not known, especially having multiple features like this, talented but impaired learning.


To be handled properly and not stray into the sheer variety of diagnostic disorders, so early on they've tracked through the doctor's growth and development, playground, and kindergarten. Schools kindergarten is a child development center that handled by the school doctor, psychologist, pedagogical, expert motion, speech specialists, and various remedial Teachers. Not guided this child since early cause he just looks like a child who has mental retardation.

It is important to establish information centers and psycho educational assessment for these children.

And we must also be aware of is the food intake into the body of our children. Number of food that has addictive substances are hostile toward us. These foods are the cause of various diseases that fall into the child's body. Familiarize children to drink honey as an antibody, antitoxin and date palm juice or other fruit juice for detoxification as well as preparations for the body's natural antioxidant.

And... Good Luck Mother!
We have so many task....
