Currently I have a student Justin who has demonstrated a learning disability which was determined to be auditory processing. This determination was made in conjunction with Medical Professionals, school Psychologists and a Child Study Team. To address this issue, this is the plan that both the school Child's Study Team and myself, the Teacher involved have come up with. I have identified the subject areas the student is having trouble with such as Mathematics and Comprehension in English Language. I have physically placed the student to the front of the class. I have employed a Teacher's Aide (for example, an On-The-Job-Trainee employee) to give the student individual attention or even be placed in a smaller group. Due to the fact that, the student may not be able to sit for very long periods without being distracted, I want to make the Lesson with four,15 minute sessions instead of one hour long so I would include a 1 - 2 minute break in between in order for the student to take a breather. In addition to that, continuous positive reinforcement needs to occur while the Lesson is in progress so that the student does not become frustrated.
The advantage of having a plan like this in place is to ensure that the student succeeds and receives a quality education.
