Using the Language Domains and Differences Curriculum Chart, complete the Language Domains and Differences sections with definitions and characteristics, as well as effects on curriculum (explaining how language disorders and differences may impact learning). Give examples of how a difficulty in that language domain or difference might impact a student’s performance in the classroom. For example, a student with a phonology disorder may have reading difficulties in pronouncing words, decoding, and in oral reading. Then provide a thorough list of interventions and strategies for each domain or difference and a separate list of technology and assistive technology, alternative access, and AAC options in the technology column. Make sure you use your textbook and the resources provided in D2L modules, as well as the Resources and Support files to provide a comprehensive list for each domain. The completed chart will be very helpful in your future teaching, as well as in the upcoming language lesson plan and case study assignments.
