The following stories show how children with typical learning disabilities can use assistive technology to perform learning tasks with greater confidence and independence. I'm free to write Lisa is a third-grader who has a learning disability called dysgraphia that makes it hard for her to write words on paper. Because of her disability, she gets behind in her schoolwork and becomes frustrated when she cannot write as easily, quickly, or legibly as her peers. Using a software program that translates her voice into text on a computer screen, Lisa can write stories by talking to a computer rather than writing the words out by hand. Lisa has more freedom to communicate through writing. She can develop her potential with greater confidence as she improves her written expression skills. Reading with my ears Spelling on my own Raymond is a sixth-grader who likes to talk in class and does well giving speeches. But because he has a learning disability, reading and writing are not as easy for him. His learning disability, called dyslexia, makes it hard for him to identify certain letters and words.

Help Sponsored by: LD and ADD/ADHD Question and Answer by Jerome J. Schultz, Ph.D. Please Read Our Q. A. Your son is in a resource room for help in reading. If his teachers are working with him, thinking he has a reading difficulty and not a reading disability, they just may not be doing enough for him, or they may not be doing the right kind of intervention. That's why it's important to have the person who tested your son give you (and more importantly, his teachers!) a very clear understanding of the nature of his reading problem. The results of the evaluation should also be used to generate specific strategies for intervention. (A student who has a visual-perceptually based learning disability, for example, requires a much different kind of help than a child who has difficulty making sense of the sounds generated by letters or letter combinations.) The private tutoring that your son gets after school should be related to and reinforce the teaching that takes place at school. This means that the people at the school have to talk to the private tutor.

There were too many for me to include all of them in the newsletter, so I have included ALL of them here. If there was duplication, I tried to include all the names of individuals who recommended the item! Does anyone have any book suggestions for treating learning disabilities or ADD without medication - perhaps through diet or other method; anything that would help me to make the child have more self confident. " I have friends who have found the book "Is This Your Child?" by Dr. Doris Rapp very helpful in learning about how diet can affect behavior. - Lori Cathy I do have a web site that I recommend highly. The best thing is to go in and look around the site. It is a radical idea but one that I have seen work time and again. I recommend the books about why we get sick.
