Integration refers to the understanding of information that has been delivered to the brain, and it includes three steps:<ol> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Sequencing, which means putting information in the right order.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Abstraction, which is making sense of the information.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ol">Organization, which refers to the brain's ability to use the information to form complete thoughts.</li> </ol>Each of the three steps is important and your child may have a weakness in one area or another that causes learning difficulty. For example, in math, sequencing (the ability to put things in order) is important for learning to count or do multiplication (as well as learn the alphabet or the months of the year). Similarly, abstraction and organization are important parts of numerous educational skills and abilities. If a certain brain activity isn’t happening correctly, it will create a roadblock to learning.<h3></h3><h3>Getting help for children with learning disabilities</h3><img src="https://www.proeves.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/courses-to-help-you-improve-the-lives-of-children-FutureLearn.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="width: 980px" />When it comes to learning disabilities, it’s not always easy to know what to do and where to find help. Turning to specialists who can pinpoint and diagnose the problem is, of course, important. You will also want to work with your child’s school to make accommodations for your child and get specialized academic help. But don’t overlook your own role. You know your child better than anyone else, so take the lead in looking into your options, learning about new treatments and services, and overseeing your child’s education.Learn the specifics about your child’s learning disability. Learn about your child’s type of learning disability. Find out how the disability affects the learning process and what cognitive skills are involved. It’s easier to evaluate learning techniques if you understand how the learning disability affects your child.Research treatments, services, and new theories. Along with knowing about the type of learning disability your child has, educate yourself about the most effective treatment options available. This can help you advocate for your child at school and pursue treatment at home.Pursue treatment and services at home. Even if the school doesn’t have the resources to treat your child’s learning disability optimally, you can pursue these options on your own at home or with a therapist or tutor.Nurture your child’s strengths. Even though children with learning disabilities struggle in one area of learning, they may excel in another. Pay attention to your child’s interests and passions. Helping children with learning disorders develop their passions and strengths will probably help them with the areas of difficulty as well.<h3>Social and emotional skills: How you can help</h3><img src="https://globalshala.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/preschoolers.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " style="width: 968px" />Learning disabilities can be extremely frustrating for children. Imagine having trouble with a skill all of your friends are tackling with ease, worrying about embarrassing yourself in front of the class or struggling to express yourself. Things can be doubly frustrating for exceptionally bright children with learning disabilities—a scenario that’s not uncommon.Kids with learning disabilities may have trouble expressing their feelings, calming themselves down, and reading nonverbal cues from others. This can lead to difficulty in the classroom and with their peers. The good news is that, as a parent, you can have a huge impact in these areas. Social and emotional skills are the most consistent indicators of success for all children—and that includes kids with learning disorders. They outweigh everything else, including academic skills, in predicting lifelong achievement and happiness.Learning disabilities, and their accompanying academic challenges, can lead to low self-esteem, isolation, and behaviour problems, but they don’t have to. You can counter these things by creating a strong support system for children with learning disabilities and helping them learn to express themselves, deal with frustration, and work through challenges. By focusing on your child’s growth as a person, and not just on academic achievements, you’ll help them to learn good emotional habits that set the stage for success throughout life.<h4>Finding support while helping a child with learning disabilities</h4>All children can be both exhilarating and exhausting, but it may seem that your child with a learning disability is especially so. You may experience some frustration trying to work with your child, and it can seem like an uphill battle when you don’t have the information you need. After you learn what their specific learning disability is and how it is affecting their behaviour, you will be able to start addressing the challenges in school and at home. If you can, be sure to reach out to other parents who are addressing similar challenges as they can be great sources of knowledge and emotional support.Source: helpguide.orgAuthors: Gina Kemp, M.A., Melinda Smith, M.A., and Jeanne Segal, Ph.D.Images: Google images[MEDIA=youtube]RKCNqHEzLwQ[/MEDIA][MEDIA=youtube]CYHzJGTA6KM[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
