children who experience difficulties in learning to read have poor phonological awareness? Many educational psychologists think that children who experience difficulties in learning to read have poor phonological awareness (ability to hear the different sounds within words). They claim that dyslexia is caused by a phonological deficit in those children affected, whilst accepting that other factors (e.g. poor short term memory) can make the condition worse. Note: Dyslexia is defined as “a learning disorder marked by impairment of the ability to recognize and comprehend written words”. (i) Which one of the following statements will be true if the theory of these educational psychologists is correct? A Children with a phonological deficit will become dyslexic. B A phonological deficit is the root cause of dyslexia. C Dyslexia is the result of poor phonological awareness only when combined with other problems. D Non-dyslexic children will have no phonological deficit. E Poor phonological awareness is often accompanied by poor short term memory.

Would my son qualify for SSI? He is 10 years old and he was diagnosed with ADHD, PAD (phonological awareness disorder), and a learning disability about 4 years ago. He also has an IEP.

He has alot of trouble with everyday things but he still functions so if anyone has had any experience with this i would really appreciate your comments. thank you
CELF Subtests - what do they show? "Could someone please tell me a bit about what the following subtests assess and what you can tell about a child from these subtests: Sentence Structure Word Structure Expressive Vocabulary (core language) Phonological awareness" I saw this question asked and it is very relevant to me, I'm really struggling to get my head around assessing children's language. I am using my mums email at the moment and am very happy to chat with someone via email.
Lesson plans??? (kindergarten - first grade)? what are some lesson plans that I can do with children in my class who are suffering a lack of phonological awareness (kindergarten to 1st grade)...they seem to be having problems segmenting and blending words. are there any good sites where I can find lesson plans?

Need assistance in identifying research? I am a school psych working the Chesterfield County Public Schools in Virginia. I currently work in two high schools however I have served in all levels of education. As a devoted disciple of CHC theory and the WJ III, I have administered hundreds of cognitive batteries and have observed the progress, and sometimes lack of progress, of students from elementary school through high school. I am observing that the cognitive demands for educational progress change over time. Educational demands in elementary school are different from the educational demands in middle school and then in high school. While the academic demands change the eligibility for special education often remains the same. For example, a student may be found eligible for learning disability services because of phonological processing/awareness difficulties in early ES, yet each successive triennial eligibility, and IEP goals, continue to site phonological processing/awareness as the primary disability. (Reading demands of the middle school student are different than the reading demands of the ES student. Reading cognitive demands at the secondary level appear to be related to general knowledge, fluent retrieval of information, working memory, etc). Often subsequent testing focuses on the same disability without consideration for possible changes in educational needs as the student and school demands evolve. I often see students in the high school who continue to have, for example, phonological processing as the primary area of disability even though the student is now able to read fluently and without evidence of decoding difficulty. This phenomenon appears to exist for all disabilities in the cognitive realm. I find that some of my colleagues pursue reevaluation testing looking for any area of weakness regardless of what educational demands may exist. I want to help change this point of view but need research based evidence to back my theories. I believe cognitive testing should focus on the cognitive demands of the student's environment (education) and developmental level. I would like to present a workshop/in-service to my colleagues on the achievement demands at each age/grade level and the best practices for identifying weaknesses relative to those demands. I would like to site research evidence to strengthen my arguments. I am needing assistance in find
