learning disability"
dyscalculia disability with mathematical
problems: numerical sense,
equations, identifying numbers, etc
"Defines a range of difficulties in math,
such as the inability to understand
numbers' meanings, measurements,
patterns, mathematical terms and the
application of mathematical principals.
Early cues include a young child's
inability to group items by size or color,
recognize patterns or understand the
meaning or order of numbers."
accommodations changes in HOW students learn and are assessed
Modifications changes in WHAT students are expected to learn
,IEP section 504 NON-IEP STUDENTS--- have other disabilities, i.e. physical, ADHD,
ADD, etc.

disabilities even if they don't have IEPs
Cerebral palsy umbrella term that groups neurological childhood disorders
that affect muscular control; does not worsen over time and
cause is located in damaged areas of the brain that control
muscle movement
response to intervention a strategy for diagnosing learning disabilities in which a
(RTI) student with an academic delay receives research supported
interventions to correct the delay. If the interventions do not
result in considerable academic improvement, the failure to
respond suggests casual learning disabilities.
Obsessive Compulsive Children and adults with_______ typically engage in a series of
Disorder (OCD) highly ritualized behaviors that are rigidly performed when

blinking, counting and so forth.
diabetic hypoglycemia AKA insulin reaction or insulin shock

the words. E.g.,
Thesmalldogherdedthefluffysheepintothebarn.
The/small/dog/herded/the/fluffy/sheep/into/the/barn
.
The more words a student separates, the higher the silent
reading fluency score.
Oral Reading Fluency AKA Curriculum-Based Measurement (CBM)
assessment (ORF)
One-minute assessment in which a student reads a
grade-level text aloud. Test supervisor notes errors the
reader doesn't self-correct and the number of words
read correctly.
phonological awareness the understanding of the sounds within a spoken word;
contributes to fluid reading skills
Frustration reading level less than 90% accuracy in word recognition and less than 50%
accuracy in comprehension, retelling a story is illogical or
incomplete and the student cannot accurately answer
questions about the text. Student is unable to unlock
meaning from a text regardless of teacher support or
strategies.
the conventional spelling system of a
language
orthography
cultural load concerned with how the relationship between language and
culture can help or hinder learning.
