QUESTION 1
1.1
Is the practice of educating children with disabilities or special needs.It is designed to
prevent, eliminate and overcome barriers that can keep a child with special needs
from learning and from participating fully in school and society.
1.2
I would advocate for inclusive education because it is based on the right of every
child to receive an education. It recognises that every child is different and has
unique needs, but does not see these differences as problems but rather as
opportunities to learn. Therefore through inclusive education we can ensure that all
children are given the opportunity to learn and develop to their full potential.
1.3
a) An impairment in specific aspects of reading, writing and mathematical notation,
that are not caused by below average intelligence or ability, impairments in sight or
hearing, emotional factors or any extraneous circumstances.
b)
Dyslexia
Children with dyslexia have problems with the learning process related to reading,
writing and speaking, but they do not have an intellectual impairment or below
average intelligence.
Dyscalculia
Primarily affects the learning process in relation to mathematics. When it comes to
mathematics children with dyscalculia either perform below their general cognitive
ability and developmental level with no obvious explanation.
Dysgraphia
Struggle to write coherently, regardless of their ability to read. The condition can be
caused by poor fine-motor skills, poor dexterity or poor muscle tone. Generally the
hand writing of children with dysgraphia is difficult or impossible to read. They use a
mixture of upper/lower case letters, irregular letter sizes and shapes.
