Abstract/Notes: To help the child who learns differently, when the usual presentation is not helping a student, Montessori educators can use several techniques: * reduce the difficulty of an activity * use more tactile-kinesthetic input * create control charts * focus on the development of oral language * increase the structure for the child with impulse control difficulties, assuming the necessity to help the ADHD child to sustain attention, teaching how to make work choices and how to develop a cycle of work * combine Multisensory Structured Language techniques with Montessori Language presentations. Note: If the child is not holding the pitcher correctly, the lesson may have to become how to hold a pitcher and work up to pouring. * Dressing Frames: lesson reduced to a first presentation of untying, unbuttoning, unbuckling, etc., with each step presented in separate lessons working toward the final step of mastering the direct purpose of the lesson * Cutting bananas and bread before cutting more solid foods, like carrots * Attaching language to the name of the presentation and all of the materials used in the lesson that is at the level of the child's oral language development SENSORIAL: * Pink Tower: Reduce the number of cubes to use every other cube, beginning with the largest, thereby increasing the discrimination to a 2 cm difference. LANGUAGE: * Since oral language skills may be a weakness for many students with learning differences, it is usually necessary to add a program of oral language development assessment and instruction to enhance vocabulary and verbal expression. The MACAR Oral Language Development Manual is one such program (Pickering, 1976). * Written language, which includes reading, spelling, composition, and handwriting, requires the combination of Montessori language materials and the therapeutic techniques of a multisensory structured language (MSL) approach (e.g., Orton-Gillingham, Sequential English Education (SEE), Slingerland, Spalding, or Wilson Language). * Use additional phonological awareness shelf activities (pat out each sound in a word; place a small floral stone or disk on a picture card for each sound in a word). * Present the Sandpaper Letters in the sequence taught in the therapeutic program. * Use the decoding pattern of blending the beginning sound to the word family of short and long vowel word family words.
