SNN Presents: Understanding Specific Learning Difficulties

Many children experience learning difficulties in school. These difficulties could be caused by many factors, one of which is called specific learning difficulties. A specific learning difficulty could affect a child’s reading, maths and writing as well as social relationships with others. In this presentation, the discussion will focus on:

– the three different types of specific learning difficulties and their characteristics
– ways to identify and diagnose specific learning difficulties
– some evidence-based intervention strategies that could help support children with specific learning difficulties

The goal of this presentation is for parents and caregivers to have some understanding of different types of learning difficulties and to take away some information about intervention strategies that could help support children with specific learning difficulties. Join us to hear from three experts in the field for their perspectives on diagnosing, supporting and teaching children with SpLD.
