Study Notes
Specific Learning Disability (SLD) in Written Expression
- Impairment encompasses difficulties in spelling accuracy, grammar, punctuation, and overall clarity or organization of writing.
- Often coexists with SLD in reading or mathematics, reflecting common underlying deficits in language and neuropsychological development.
- Children with this impairment frequently struggle with eye-hand coordination tasks, despite having normal gross motor skills.
- Teachers observe that affected students create shorter, less engaging, and poorly structured essays compared to peers with normal writing abilities.
- These children are less likely to review their writing for spelling, punctuation, and grammatical errors, impacting the clarity of their work.
- Spelling mistakes or illegible handwriting alone, without significantly hindering daily activities or academic performance, do not meet the criteria for diagnosis.
- Issues in written expression often indicate the potential for additional learning challenges, due to shared metacognitive processes like planning, self-monitoring, self-evaluation, and self-modification.
