Really Great Reading’s Post

Imagine a classroom where every child seems to understand the instructions—except for one. This student isn't struggling with the task itself but with the language used to explain it. This could be a sign of Developmental Language Disorder (DLD). DLD is a learning deficit that affects a child's ability to use and understand language, leading to challenges in communication, academics, and social interactions. It affects approximately 1 in every 14 kindergarten-aged children, yet it often goes undiagnosed due to its subtlety and complexity. On #DLDday, let’s raise awareness about DLD and advocate for better identification and support for those impacted. Together, we can help create inclusive classrooms where every child has the chance to succeed.
