Answer to Question 1

ANSWER: Early literacy refers to the child's early entrance into the world of language, which
includes words, books, poetry, and stories. It is important that children with learning
disabilities be provided with an abundant and rich literacy environment. Activities that
foster early literacy include oral language activities, activities that build concepts about
print, and activities that teach alphabet knowledge, phonological awareness, lettersound
correspondence, and beginning reading vocabulary.

Answer to Question 2

ANSWER: Students with learning disabilities and related mild disabilities can have many different
types of language problems: lack of phonological awareness, delayed speech, disorders
of grammar or syntax, limited vocabulary, and poor understanding of oral language.
Students with learning disabilities can also have difficulty with written language,
reading, writing, and spelling.
