Exceptional
Atypical Development
Children exhibit behaviors that fall outside of
the normal, or expected, range of development:
Some children show patterns of behaviors
that are unusual or markedly different from
their peers.
There is a world of difference between a skill
that is delayed and one that is disordered.
Exceptional Development
This commonly refer to learners with
exceptionalities as persons who are different
in some way from the “normal” or
“average”. The term “exceptional learners”
includes those with special needs related to
cognitive abilities, behaviour, social
functioning, physical and sensory impairments,
emotional disturbances, and giftedness.

Disability vs. Handicap
Disability
a disability is a measurable impairment or limitation that
“interferes with a person’s ability, for example to walk, lift, hear,
or learn.
It may refer to a physical, sensory, or mental condition.
Handicap
A disadvantage that occurs as a result of a disability or
impairment. The degree of disadvantage (or the extent of the
handicap) is often dependent on the adjustment made by both
the person and his environment.
Mental Retardation
Refers to significant sub-average intelligence and deficits in
adaptive behaviour. There is difficulty in managing activities
of daily living and in conducting themselves appropriately in
social situations.
a. Mild Retardation – IQ scores 55 to 69, adult capacity 8-11 years old;
b. Moderate Retardation – IQ scores 40-54; adult capacity 5-7 years old;
c. Severe Retardation - IQ scores 25-39; adult capacity 3-5 years old;
d. Profound retardation – IQ scores below 25; adult capacity, less than 3
years old
Learning Difficulties
Involve difficulties in specific cognitive
processes like perception, language, memory,
or metacognition that are not due to other
disabilities like mental retardation, emotional
or behavioural disorders, or sensory
impairments.
Dyslexia
Dysgraphia
Dyscalculia
Language Problems
language delays or language disorders
diagnosed when a child’s speech, verbal
expression, and/or understanding of language are
significantly less well developed for his age.
