    This document discusses factors that influence child development and ways to help slow learners. It addresses three key points: 1. Factors that influence prenatal and baby development include nutrition, environment, mother's health, genetics, and diseases. 2. Slow learners experience development at a slower rate due to biological and environmental factors like vision problems, violence, and illiterate parents. 3. Teachers can help slow learners by creating a quiet work environment, giving shorter assignments, careful assessment, and patience. Cooperative learning and rewarding progress are also recommended.

    Question 3 (b) Explain the reasons
    why there are certain children who
    are slow in learning. Suggest how a
    teacher could help that particular
    child.

    DEFINITIONS
    A slow learneris a child of below average
    intelligence, whose thinking skills have
    developed significantly more slowly than the
    norm for his/her age. This child will go
    through the same basic developmental
    stages as other children, but will do so at a
    significantly slower rate. However, this
    development, while being slower,
    nevertheless be relatively even. (Karen
    Mackay, 2001 as cited by SPELD SA
    SPRING 2001 newsletter)

    Slow learners are children who are doing


    poorly in school, yet are not eligible for
    special education; their intelligence test
    scores are too high for consideration as a
    child with mental retardation (Mercer,
    1996)(MacMillan, Gresham, Bocian, &
    Lambros, 1998).
    Although slow learners may have special
    educational needs, they do not fit neatly
    into the special education system
    (MacMillan, Gresham, Bocian, &
    Lambros, 1998).
