Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The three characteristics of learning disabled students are as follows:
(1) The individual has a disorder related to one or more of the basic psychological processes
(such as memory, auditory perception, visual perception, and oral language).
(2) The individual has difficulty learning, especially in the areas of speaking, listening, writing, reading, and mathematics.
(3) These problems are not due primarily to other causes, such as intellectual disability, emotional disturbance, or cultural disadvantage.
Teaching students with LD provides special challenges. Several suggestions for instruction of these students were provided in the text.
a.Structure learning tasks to help students with learning disabilities compensate for their weaknesses. For example, help students learn how to reduce distractions, and attend to what's important, by limiting the materials on their desks. Other examples are given in the text. b. Capitalize on the natural resources that exist in your classroom to help students improve academically, socially, and emotionally. Sources of classroom support, such as peer tutoring and cooperative learning, provide students opportunities to develop self-esteem and interpersonal relationships and to improve academic achievement.
