Enhancing Reading Skills among Children with Specific Learning Disabilities

Abstract

This article presents a literature review and recommendations on enhancing reading skills for children with specific learning disabilities. Immediately after a child is diagnosed as encountering problems in reading, we must start to plan interventions for them. This article coincides with the education demands on ensuring sustainable development among children with specific learning disabilities. We hope more reading instructions can support children with specific learning difficulties to ensure a better education. The results of this study can provide a clearer picture of the prototype product direction that needs to be developed to help more children who encounter reading difficulties. Recommendations are made through framework design and intervention with interactive teaching kits to capture their attention while learning a language. We also developed three-dimensional books covering 10 Bahasa Malaysia word clusters. Hence, language will be much easier to learn by grouping the words based on the level of difficulties. It is also important for teachers to understand students' abilities in planning learning activities accordingly.
