Learning Disability Accommodations

Dyscalculia Accommodations

Unlike individuals with dyslexia or dysgraphia, learners with dyscalculia do not typically struggle with reading or writing. However, they take longer to learn arithmetic and other mathematical concepts. Typical symptoms include an inability to estimate, understand fractions, and read a clock face.

Dyslexia Accommodations

Dyslexia is a learning disability in reading. People with dyslexia have trouble reading at a good pace and without mistakes. They may also have a hard time with reading comprehension, spelling, and writing. But these challenges aren’t a problem with intelligence.

Dysgraphia Accommodations

Dysgraphia is a learning disability that affects writing abilities. It can manifest itself as difficulties with spelling, poor handwriting and trouble putting thoughts on paper. Because writing requires a complex set of motor and information processing skills, saying a student has dysgraphia is not sufficient.
