Additional Information
Children learn to communicate from the time they are born. By the time they turn 1, most children begin to name common objects and begin to use language to get attention, or request for objects. By 4, children’s speech should be clear and understood by others outside their home environment.
They can relate past events and use language to tell stories or communicate rules of games. Their sentence length and complexity increase with age. Children will also acquire literacy skills as their language develops.
Learning Disability, including dyslexia and specific language impairment, affect 15% of children in schools. Children with learning difficulties underperform in school. They also have difficulties learning to read or write (dyslexia and dysgraphia). There may be underlying speech and language disorders. Some children experience difficulties with mathematical concepts.
Most of these children with learning difficulties have normal IQ but seem to struggle with school work.Dyslexia is a reading disability. It is now also known as Developmental Reading Disorder (DRD). It is a form of learning disability. It affects approximately 5-10% 0f the population.
Developmental Reading Disorder (DRD) in the simplest form, it is best described as an impairment where the the brain does not properly recognize or process certain symbols (such as letters). It is an impairment in the learning of reading skills despite normal intelligence and motivation. Students with DRD tend to have greater difficulties in school.
Children with DRD often require two to three times as much time as other children to read and understand. Slower reading also reduces their understanding what has been read, particularly when reading longer sentences. These children also have greater difficulties with spelling.

Children with speech and language delays have difficulties expressing themselves, and may have difficulties answering questions, or telling others about what they have done. They have difficulties speaking in complete sentences. Story telling may also be disorganized and or lack content. Children at risk of delayed speech and language development include children with Autism, or are suspected of being on the Autistic Spectrum Disorder.
Children with special needs, hearing impairment, or other neurological impairment are also at risk of speech and language delays. It has been well documented that children who continue to have speech and language difficulties at school age have increased risk of learning difficulties, reading difficulties and have poorer academic outcomes.
