Coping things from board
When I copy things off the board, I don’t see whole words or sentences. I see shapes and letters. I have to copy each one, then try to understand it at the end.
Sometimes, when I get to the end of a sentence or a paragraph it’s taken so much hard work to read it the first time, I’ve forgotten what it all means.

In Conclusion: We in the SEN Department consider the entire
individual; physically, emotionally and socially. We focus heavily on an individual’s environment as a means of facilitating independence. SEN seek to eliminate barriers to improved function by a process of
Compensation (modifying the environment to Accommodate the problem thus lessening it’s effect) and/or Remediation (correcting the problem)

foolishly).Their weakness is they don't listen to others, will
filter in only what whey want to hear in a conversation, and very subjective.
However, because of their straightforward attitude, they tend to be fairly popular.

Doctors have concluded that if you find the man in 3 seconds that your right half of your brain is better developed than most people.If you find the man between 3 seconds and one minute, then your right half of the brain is developed normally.If you find the man between one minute and 3 minutes, then the right half of your brain is functioning slowly and you need to eat more protein.If you have not found the man after 3 minutes, your right half of your brain is a mess, and the only advice is to look more for these types of exercises to make that part of the brain stronger.

“What is a teacher?
I'll tell you:
it isn't someone who teaches something,
but someone who inspires the student to give of her best in order to discover what she already knows.”
