When a teacher is asking them a question it is going ten times faster in their brain than it is for a normal student. When they finally understood the question and the teacher and other students already moved on to the next question. They do not like to take risks or chances because they don’t get the positive reinforcement for getting the answer right and when they get it wrong the teacher makes a big deal out of it. Being embarrassed is not a fun thing for anyone but, it is particularly difficult for these children. As a teacher dealing with students with learning disabilities it is a great idea to talk to them privately and tell them the only way you are going to call on them, or ask them to answer a question is when you stand directly in front of their desk. This will help them think about the question and hopefully come up with the answer without being startled or surprised and possibly embarrassed because they may get the answer wrong. Discussing this procedure in private with the student will hopefully give them the confidence in me the teacher by showing them that I will never put them in an upsetting or uncomfortable situation. It helps me understand what these children are going through while learning. I chose this topic because this happens to almost every child that has a disability and it is always good to know as a teacher that children do not like to be surprised or take risks because of the possible
