You are the special education resource room teacher at your local elementary school. A general education teacher asks you for help with several students who have memory problems, particularly remembering what they read. The teacher says he heard about strategies. Describe the information you would share with him: - Explain the concept of strategies. - Why strategies help students with memory problems. - An example of a strategy he could teach these students.
What will be an ideal response?
Ans: Answers will vary but should include:
• Strategies are deliberate and consciously applied procedures that help learners store and retrieve information and solve problems.
• Strategies help learners store and retrieve information; students with disabilities may not develop and learn strategies as a typical learner does.
• Examples: re-read more deliberately to gain comprehension; stop and monitor reading at the end of each paragraph and restate in their minds what they just read; other examples of reading strategies.
