Tips for teachers
Give one clear instruction at a time so not to confuse the student
Set clear structured guideline
If possible 'walk them through' the next steps of their learning so everything is familiar to them
Use routines to reinforce learning as this helps them keep de-stressed and reduces anxiety.
Pre-warn and prepare the student in advance for any changes that might occur
Sit the student close to the front of the class
Continually develop their self esteem
Make sure they have extra time to complete their work
More Ideas:
Chunk information into bit size pieces
Make all instructions spoken slowly and clearly
Sit them in a quieter place away from distractions i.e. windows/doors etc
Also be aware that light windows and sound can cause issuesÂ
Use outlines and maps
Enlarge away worksheet or use the zoom button on their computer
