The individuality of students’
needs should be primarily
concern for any teacher.
However, the type of disability
will play an important part in
determining the strategies that
you will use to help the
students adjust and perform to
their abilities.
As a special education teacher, you
will be required to adapt the
curriculum and make necessary
modifications to increase the
student’s chances of success.
If you are working in a regular
education setting, you will come
into contact with high-incidence
disabilities.
These may include the following:
• Learning Disabilities
• Mental retardation: note that the label
of mental retardation (MR), while used in
IDEA, may vary from state to state. For
instance, some states use cognitively
delayed or cognitive disability (CD) in
place of MR.
• Emotional disabilities
• Attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder
(ADHD)
