Accessing the curriculum : strategies for differentiation for pupils with Down syndrome Series: Down Syndrome Issues & Information
Description: - vi, 50 p. : col. ill. ; 30 cm.
- "By differentiation the authors mean making changes, from small changes to larger ones, which enable children to learn from the school curriculum, designed for their age group, with their peers in an inclusive schooling system. Curricula in each country differ, but all have been created with the educational needs of children as a priority, to equip them socially and academically to function as a member of their community. In each country the curriculum for all children is likely to be the best guide for teaching the majority of children with Down syndrome of all ages, provided that the curriculum is used flexibly and can be differentiated." - INTRODUCTION

- "Children and adults with Down syndrome vary widely in their interest and achievements in number skills and mathematics.. Typically, the achievements of individuals with Down syndrome in number are at a lower level than their achievements in literacy. However, there is a wide range of progress and while some children find number difficult, other children with Down syndrome enjoy mathematics. When a child is interested, motivated and taught well, he or she may achieve at an age appropriate level in primary school...

After basic skills have been mastered, a selection of activities for learning more advanced skills are described... Inclusion in the mathematics curriculum and the necessity for language teaching are emphasised. This module links with the overview module (ID 31032) which presents and discusses on number for children with Down syndrome and the implications for teaching and learning." - SUMMARY

Reading and writing for individuals with Down syndrome : an overview Series: Down Syndrome Issues and Information
Description: - vi, 40 p. ; col. ill. ; 30 cm.
- "Reading progress and being involved in supported reading and writing influences speech, language and memory skills for all children, including those with Down syndrome. Children with Down syndrome educated in mainstream inclusive classrooms achieve higher levels of literacy than those of similar ability educated in special schools... Children introduced to literacy as a language teaching activity in preschool years reach the highest levels of achievement, but individuals may make significant progress at any age into early adulthood, and many late starters do achieve functional levels of literacy. Reading should be taught and pupils involved in the daily use of literacy throughout teenage and adult years, particularly for those individuals who may not have made progress earlier." - SUMMARY
