Summary

Introduction

Children with Learning Disabilities (LD) need to receive Special Education Services as their counterparts in other categories due to the difficulties facing them in learning various academic skills within the regular classroom. These difficulties often render the students unable to benefit from the activities and experiences provided in the classroom, in spite of possessing appropriate mental abilities which qualify them to continue and benefit from their education in various aspects of life (Awwad & Al-Imam, 2007). The definition does not include the learning difficulties resulting from visual, motor, auditory, or mental disabilities, emotional disorders, or economic, environmental, and cultural deprivation
