| Abstract: | Residual signs characteristic of a specific language disability, such as vocabulary deficits, trouble differentiating between
literal and figurative words, difficulty paraphrasing a reading selection, and problems with abstract reasoning make it arduous
for dyslexic adolescents to demonstrate their maximum potential on the verbal section of the Scholastic Aptitude Test. This
paper illustrates ways in which SAT skills can be enhanced through a structured program of vocabulary development, an understanding
of test taking strategies for specific SAT questions, and the learning of a pattern of analysis to improve reading comprehension.
It includes case studies, as well as a discussion of the types of special test arrangements available for dyslexic students. |
