learners and learning disabled children. This qualitative research aims to observe the learning difficulties of slow learners and learning disabled children in reading and then come out with a brief description of their reading ability and performance in overall. Besides, the students who
are at risk of dyslexia is also identified based on the literature review and the researcher's observation. The performance in reading of the possible dyslexic is described individually. The assessment for reading ability in this study emphasizes on early phonetic awareness, alphabet
recognition, word recognition, reading of words, reading of sentences and copying and contextual reading. Implications of these findings and areas offuture research are discussed. |
