A
student with Learning disABILITIES is an individual
for whom traditional teaching methods may not
make sense. Many students with average or above
average intelligence are diagnosed with Learning
disABILITIES every year. A Learning disABILITY
simply means that an individual acquires, stores
and expresses information in a specific way.
According
to the Learning Disabilities Association of Ontario,
in order for a person with Learning disABILITIES
(LD) to be successful in life, they require:
Specific skill instruction;
Compensatory strategies;
Accommodations; and
Self-advocacy training.
The
SC4LD addresses these needs by offering:
Teaching;
Learning Strategies;
Assistive technology; and
Self-advocacy training
to
students in grades 2 - 12 who have diagnosed or
identified Specific Learning disABILITIES.
In
order to support the family of the student who
has LD, advocacy, assessment, and workshop services
are also available.
