TEXES 181 EXAMS SCRIPT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
GRADED A+
✔✔Wechsler Intelligence Scale - ✔✔It is useful for eleven years. It is suitable for
students between the ages of 6 and 16.
✔✔Auditory training - ✔✔It helps children use residual to develop sound awareness.
✔✔Wechsler Preschool and Primary Scale of Intelligence - ✔✔It is suitable for younger
students. Both have alternative supplements because the verbal scales are not suitable
for D/HH students.
✔✔Student Communication Repair Inventory and Practical Training - ✔✔helps discover
which strategies students use to repair communication. This provides teachers with the
opportunity to guide students to the appropriate repair strategies.
✔✔Autism Spectrum Disorders - ✔✔The students also may show excellent verbal skills
in monologues but be unable to initiate and maintain conversations and have difficulty
with turn-taking.
✔✔Receptive Language - ✔✔the ability to understand spoken and written language
✔✔Echolalia - ✔✔continually repeating what others say is normal in younger children.
✔✔Down syndrome - ✔✔lower/weaker muscle tone/hypotonia
May not develop physical coordination, balance, and proprioception
Oral-motor skills are slower
small noses
short, stubby fingers
short, thick necks
small heads
celiac disease (gluten intolerance)
gastroesophageal reflux
hypothyroidism
hearing and vision problems
✔✔Accommodations for blind students - ✔✔braille, computer text-to-speech software,
orientation and mobility specialists,
✔✔Orientation and Mobility Specialists - ✔✔teach blind students how to get around in
indoor and outdoor settings.
✔✔Activities of Daily Living - ✔✔self-feeding, toileting, walking
, ✔✔Rubric - ✔✔used to describe an assessment tool that provides performance level
categories and descriptors for ranges of performance in each category.
✔✔Observation-based assessment - ✔✔enables the evaluator to see the student's
performance in a variety of contexts.
✔✔Depakote - ✔✔an anticonvulsive prescribed to control seizures.
✔✔Pulmozyme - ✔✔a medicine for a patient who has cystic fibrosis. It makes the lung
secretions thinner and thus less likely to obstruct breathing, and also decreases the
patient's risk of respiratory tract infections.
✔✔Pure-tone audiometry - ✔✔is used to measure hearing sensitivity thresholds.
✔✔Overgeneralizing - ✔✔naming many objects with one word like calling all vehicles
✔✔What is the difference between deaf and hearing students? - ✔✔Deaf students rely
on exclusively on visual cues like facial expressions, gestures, and body language; and
in ASL while hearing students rely on auditory input.
✔✔Progressive Disabilities - ✔✔dementia, degenerative arthritis
✔✔Relapsing Disabilities - ✔✔cancer epilepsy- require less continual care but more
ability to shift suddenly from normal to crisis mode and rapidly activate resources
✔✔Congenital Disabilities - ✔✔shape the identity and life of a child, so the child and
family are not required to adjust to a sudden loss of function.
✔✔Spina bifida - ✔✔the neural tube that will become the baby's brain, spinal cord and
enclosing tissues does not close completely. Treatment: surgery, exercises preparing
for later assisted walking.
✔✔Muscular dystrophy - ✔✔a genetic condition, makes muscle fibers
unusually vulnerable to damage, causing progressive weakness, breathing/swallowing
difficulties/ limb contractures.
✔✔Cystic fibrosis - ✔✔a genetic defect that makes normally thin, slippery secretory
juices become thick and sticky. These fluids, which normally lubricate the tissues, when
thicken obstruct passage ways, ducts, and tubes, particularly in the lungs and pancreas.
Treatment: antibiotics, muscus thinning meds, bronchodilators, vibrating vests,
breathing exercises, nutritional counseling, energy-conserving techniques, and oxygen
therapy.
