Web Site Helps Parents Identify Learning Difficulties
Even at age three or four, some children show signs that they struggle to learn. Some of these concerns will resolve themselves over time, but some may be precursors of learning disabilities.
The National Center for Learning Disabilities, in collaboration with the Frank Porter Graham Child Development Institute, the National Association for the Education of Young Children, the Communication Consortium Media Center, and several key state partners, have launched www.RecognitionandResponse.org, a Web site full of free resources based on a new and innovative Recognition and Response system.
The system is a research-based approach to helping teachers and parents respond to signs of learning difficulty in young children as early as ages 3 or 4, before they experience school failure.
The Web site offers easy-to-read articles, checklists and fact sheets with action-oriented information. Also offered are policy statements, legislative summaries and research papers and reports that can help early learning professionals integrate the Recognition and Response system into their programs.
A wide variety of resources are offered to help teachers with observing and recording behavior, progress monitoring, engaging parents as partners, and more.
