We Want to Learn

So does the fact that a child is having trouble learning the concepts in school at the same pace as the rest of the class mean they are not trying? 

God created in each one of us the desire to observe and learn. The method in which a person learns will vary. The traditional class room is just one way that works for many children. Others children will find the classroom dificult. This may be from an organic learning dificulty or an emotional state that is carried in from another experience.

Beyond the Books

Some learn by visuals, some learn by auditory explanation, others may learn better by written explanation. One of the principles behind learning support is helping a child develop their desire for knowledge and applying it to the books in school and the situations in life.

Many children with learning challenges will benefit from educational excercises beyond printed text books and chalkboards.

Learning Support Group is a group of people who want to assist teachers and parents who would like resources to aid them in teaching the heart and mind of the children God has placed in their care.
