Språkutveckling i särskolan
En studie över hur en särskolas pedagoger arbetar språkutvecklande utifrån barnens förutsättningar och behov.
All human beings need and have the right to a language. How a language is learned and used depends on the individual conditions. This study considers the work to development the language done by pedagogues in a special school for mentally retarded children. How do pedagogues work to develop the language in children who are so different and have so different conditions and needs? That is the central aim of this study. The purpose with this case study is to investigate and illustrate how pedagogues in a special school for mentally retarded children are working to develop the language of the pupils considering their speech, reading, writing and listening. Our expectation and ambition with this study is to provide something that all pedagogues can benefit by, irrespective of in what school or with what sort of children you are working. The study shows that the pedagogues in this special school for children with mental disabilities are working in many different ways with language development. The study also shows that from the teaching pedagogues in this special school for children with mental disabilities a great deal of individual adjustment is required since the children differ in talent and development.
