Students Description
S is an SLD student with a law ability in writing. His disability is called
Dysgraphia, which is an affecting the ability to recognize forms in
letters, to write letters and words on paper and to understand the
relationship between sounds, spoken words and written letters (Logsdon,
2014).
Problems and Difficulties
Ss motor skills are fine, he can read and write words and letters, he
knows that at the beginning of a sentence he should start with capital
letter and end with a full stop, but he has problems with spelling,
grammar, and writing a complete sentence. Also, he is lazy when it comes
to writing. When he writes a sentence, he has his own ideas but he cannot
write them down. Also, when there is an activity, where the students have
to write, he doesnt write unless there is someone who watches over him
and tells him what to write and how, especially if it was writing some
sentences. For example, there was an activity which is to write an informal
letter, I had to stay beside him to help him to generate some ideas, then I
would tell him the spelling of the word or let him try to write it according
to how he spell it.
Special Needs Assistance
There is a special education teacher, sometimes she come into the class
and assist S, and other times she takes him out of the class into a small
room, and it is done 4 times per week for 30 minutes a day. During this
time, she gives him extra lessons for the spelling, and handwriting. What
she do for the lesson is, she uses the one-line notebook when she do the
spelling with him. To make it more exciting, and attract Ss attention, she
uses a dice and 2 sheets that are numbered from 1 6. She let Him throw
the dice, then she will read the instruction of the number that appeared,
and He will do as what the instruction is saying.

compound words test, he will do the short words, which are easier that the
compound ones.
Moreover, when I give the students 3 activities, S will get 1 activity. If he
found it easy then I would give him another one. Or, I would give him 3
activities same as his friends but with fewer questions. For example, when
the students will get 3 worksheets with 10 questions on them, S also will
get 3 worksheets, but instead of answering 10 questions he will answer
only 5 questions.
Emotional Development
The building blocks for a positive
self-esteem and self-confidence.
