3.         Learning disabilities Are neurologically based processing problems. This processing problem can interfere with learning basic skills such as reading, writing or math. They can also interference with high level skills such as organization, time planning, abstract reasoning, long or short term memory and attention. It is important to realize that learning disability can affect an individual life beyond academics and can impact relationship with family, friend and in the work place, (Bennetts, L.K,2002)

                        Also know  as a heaving  impairment  is  the  partial  or  total  I ability  to hear  .If  someone  has  very litter  or  no  hearing  the  day  may be caused
Cause of sensory impairments
a). Cause of sightless
These  are many  cause  of  sight less  such as  injury or  infection  genetic or age related  such  as  ad 9age  related  ma cultural degeneration ) cataracts  and  diabetic  retinopathy. it  is also  possible to have  more than  one eye condition  such as retinitis pigmentosa and glaucoma detached retinas




A child with visual impairments
 Is  a learn  aspect we  to describe  any kind  of  vision less  ,whether its  some one  who  can not  see at all or  some  who has  partial  vision  loss (Davis .P2002)
 Types  of visual  impairments
Categorities into two types

 What put a child at risk?
            Some  babies  are born  blind or with severe  vision  loss this  can be  caused  many different  tings  including  abnormalities  in the  development  of the  eyes  or injury to  eye structure from  thing like  prematurity  related retina path or infections or by development problem or injury  to the  parts  of the  brain  responsible  for vision  some  of the factor  placing an infant , toddler, or child  at a significant risk for  visual  impairment  include 
  Prematurity, low birth needing to be treated with oxygen at birth or bleeding in the brain
 Family history of retinol blastoma, congenital cataracts or metabolic or genetic  disease

 Types of hearing loss
 There are  two  types  of hearing  loss impairments 
1)      Conducive 
2)      Sensor neural
 Conducive  hearing  impairments  is when sound  from  outside  you  children ear  have  trouble  getting  to or going  through the different  parts  inside the ear conductive  hearing  impairment  it usually  caused  by  middle  ear infection  and  is usually temporary .
 Sensor neural hearing impairment 
The  nerves  that are in change  of receiving  sound  and sort out what it means  don’t  work  properly sensor neural ,moderate ,severe  impairment  can be  mild ,moderate ,severe or pre found .
 There are cause of  acquired hearing  loss  including 
        i.            A perforated eardrum

Methods
 Exploration  of  typical and  typical  development  of the  whole  child ( cognitive ,language  ,physical ,social  and emotional ) through  examination  of development and learning  theories  education  and low  process impact  of disabilities  in child family  and  learning  collaborative  approached  support individual  need  of each  student.
D). Explain  the  educational  need  and  how  the  teacher  should  handle the  child  exceptional or  the child  should  handle ; the child  with exceptionality or the  child with  specific  disability in the  classroom
 “Exceptional  children”  need special  educational  service  which  embody  three  worth  of role  there are;
i.                     Traditional  professionals  personnel  teachers, teacher  educators  administrator ,consultants  the  rapidest ,speech  the  rapid and  other

i.                     Alternative assessments 
 In the context of student with disabilities assessment refer information about a  student  in order  to identify  the strengths  of the  student to  decide  what special educational  al  support if any  student  needs

 Conclusion. 
            Exceptional  children it has been beneficial  to  learn  about  various  teaching  strategies  to aid  student  who  possess a variety of  disabilities. Through this  course  I have  learned  the importance  of working with parent  learning  specialist and  the student .Thought  schooling  student  ideally should  get to  point where  they  can learn  independent  and  be equipment  for  future education and college  if they  choose  to  purse  that course .Throughout  my observation  it was  interesting  o learning  in children with  exceptionalities.
