Somehow we feel that we need to make the work as difficult as we can. Where I teach, worksheets are usually given to us. Often, they are at the level of the brighter students which does not provide a positive experience for students who have difficulties in learning. I think worksheets must be planned/selected carefully. Whenever possible, I try to make my own worksheets that are simpler and that have one objective in mind. We need to maximize the chances of success in our children and not set them up for failure.
I am almost at the end of the Certificate Course and am so glad that I did it. After working for years with children who have developmental delays and intellectual impairment as well as those with dyslexia, I have still learned so much and a lot of what I have been doing has been reinforced.
