I need to write 2 essays, The first one is
write 1000 – 1250 word essay: Educating Special Needs Students
addressing the following:
- Define intellectual disability, autism, and multiple disabilities, their causes, and the impact of the disabilities on the education of the student with intellectual disability.
- Identify areas of curriculum necessary for students with mild to moderate disabilities and explain why they are needed.
The second essay is:
Create a “Definition Chart” that defines learning disabilities and communication disorders, identifies characteristics and causes, and describes, with examples, effective teaching strategies and placement options.
should apply as they put the definition into practice:
1. Limitations in a person’s present functioning must be considered within the context of
community environments typical of the individual’s age, peers, and culture.
2. Valid assessment considers cultural and linguistic diversity as well as differences in
communication, sensory, motor, and behavioral factors.
3. Within an individual, limitations often coexist with strengths.
4. An important purpose of describing limitations is to develop a profile of needed supports.
5. With appropriate personalized supports over a sustained period, the life functioning of
the person with [intellectual disabilities] generally will improve (AAIDD, 2009).
