The assessment and diagnosis of learning disabilities is a complex process. There is no single test that can diagnose a learning disability. Instead, a team of professionals will typically use a variety of assessment tools to gather information about the child's strengths and weaknesses.

The assessment process may include:

• A physical examination
• A psychological evaluation
• A speech and language evaluation
• An occupational therapy evaluation
• A neuropsychological evaluation

Once the assessment process is complete, the team of professionals will meet to discuss their findings and make a diagnosis.

Accommodations are changes to the learning environment or the way instruction is delivered that can help children with learning disabilities succeed. Accommodations can be made in any area of the curriculum, including reading, writing, math, and science.

Some common accommodations include:

• Use of a calculator or computer
• Preferential seating
