Specific Learning Disability (SLD) is a type of neurodevelopmental disorder that manifests in the inability to engage in specific academic skills like reading, writing, or math.

Key Points Specific learning disabilities include -

  • Dyslexia- It is a reading difficulty that includes the inability to distinguish rhyming words from nursery rhymes, Letters, and/or reversing of words while reading (d/b, p/q, saw/was), difficulty with spellings, inability to copy correctly, and often shows phonic versions in spellings.
  • Dysgraphia is a difficulty in written expressions like the absence of punctuation marks, inability to follow grammatical rules (comes becomes comed), and limited vocabulary.
  • Dyscalculia is the difficulty with the mathematics that includes displaying an inability in pre-math concepts like comparison (big-small, high-low), counting, sorting, etc.  

Hence we conclude that dyslexia is a learning disability.
