TEACHING STRATEGIES TO HELP WITH
SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS -
TEACHING PUPILS WITH DYSPRAXIA
-
Try to ensure
that the child is sitting in an upright position with both feet flat on the floor.
-
If possible try
to give him/her a sloping surface to write on.
-
The child should
be seated away from doors and windows where there might be distractions.
He/she
should be close enough to hear and see instructions given by the teacher.
-
Use sheets with
spaces for answers to reduce the amount of writing required.
-
Use lined paper
and if possible, attach it to the desk so that the child doesn’t have to hold
it in place while writing.
-
Tasks should be
broken down into small components
-
Repeat verbal
instructions several times and keep them simple.
-
Use different
coloured pens for each line when writing on board.
