You know your child can hear, but sometimes it seems like she can\u2019t.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>That\u2019s what can happen in a child with auditory processing disorder (APD), or central auditory processing disorder (CAPD), as it is also called.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>What Is Auditory Processing Disorder?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>In a child with APD, the brain doesn\u2019t recognize and interpret sounds correctly\u2014<span class=\"italic\">especially <\/span>the sounds that make up speech. Your child may <span class=\"italic\">appear <\/span>to have an auditory deficit, but in most cases, hearing is not the problem. It\u2019s like there\u2019s a disconnect somewhere between the ears and the brain. She can hear what you say; she just can\u2019t always process it.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>A learner with APD is like an old computer with a fast, new processor. Neither the old computer nor the child with APD can keep up. The data goes in, but once it\u2019s in, it can\u2019t be processed quickly enough or efficiently enough. And in both cases the result is major frustration.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"https:\/\/downloads.allaboutlearningpress.com\/downloads\/Quick_Guides\/Auditory-Processing-Disorder-Quick-Guide.pdf\" title=\"Quick Guide for Auditory Processing Disorder\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/Quick-Guide-APD-596x165.png\" alt=\"Auditory Processing Disorder Quick Guide\" width=\"500\" class=\"center\" \/><\/a>\r\n\r\n<h2>The Signs of Auditory Processing Disorder<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>The symptoms of auditory processing disorder can range from mild to severe and may look different from child to child. APD is diagnosed by an audiologist, but the child who has APD may display many of the following characteristics.<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li>He may struggle to hear in crowded, noisy places.<\/li>\r\n    <li>He may frequently ask you to repeat yourself.<\/li>\r\n    <li>She may appear to be inattentive or she may be easily distracted.<\/li>\r\n    <li>She has difficulty following directions.<\/li>\r\n    <li>He may have noticeable speech delays.<\/li>\r\n    <li>She may seem to have heard you when she hasn\u2019t.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n<h2>APD and the Struggle to Read and Spell<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"right\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/granola-mom-1.jpg\" alt=\"Auditory Processing Disorder: How can I help my child? - All About Learning Press\" width=\"450\" \/><p>From the earliest stages of pre-reading instruction, when the development of <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/phonological-awareness\/\" title=\"phonological awareness\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">phonemic awareness<\/a> is so important, APD can make reading and spelling difficult. Because of the subtleties of similar-sounding phonemes, APD hampers a child\u2019s ability to match letter names and sounds. This struggle continues to complicate the vital process of learning and using <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/phonograms\/\" title=\"phonograms\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">phonograms<\/a> to build words. How can a child learn to use and manipulate the most basic building blocks of language if he can\u2019t \u201chear\u201d them to begin with? Just imagine the difficulty of attempting to complete <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/sound-out-words\/\" title=\"Helping Kids Sound Out Words\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">blending<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/segmenting-spelling\/\" title=\"Segmenting: a critical spelling skill\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">segmenting<\/a> exercises when you already struggle to hear and process isolated phonemes.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Down the reading road, students with APD may have difficulty recalling what they\u2019ve read or putting their thoughts into words. And because APD learners struggle to hear the individual sounds in words, they may also struggle with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/teach-rhyming\/\" title=\"teach rhyming\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">rhyming<\/a>, observing <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/make-spelling-logical\/\" title=\"Make Spelling Logical\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">spelling patterns<\/a>, learning <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/vocabulary\/\" title=\"How to Build Your Child's Vocabulary\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">new vocabulary<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/reading-comprehension\/\" title=\"reading comprehension\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">reading comprehension<\/a>, oral and written expression, and so much more. In addition to all of that, many APD learners also struggle with <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/improving-working-memory\/\" title=\"Improving Workng Memory\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">long-term memory<\/a> issues that affect their ability to retain language-based knowledge. It\u2019s not hard to understand why children with APD have such a difficult time with reading and spelling, is it?<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Can <cite>All About Reading<\/cite> and <cite>All About Spelling<\/cite> Help My Child?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n<p>Although your APD child will face many academic challenges, you <span class=\"italic\">can <\/span>help him learn to read and spell. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/all-about-reading\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><cite>All About Reading<\/cite><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/all-about-spelling\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><cite>All About Spelling<\/cite><\/a> offer an instructional approach that is well-suited to the needs of children with APD.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n    <li><span class=\"bold\">The programs are <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/spelling-multisensory\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">multisensory<\/a><\/span>, meaning they approach learning through sight, sound, and touch. Because auditory instruction can be so difficult for children with APD, teaching through the visual and kinesthetic pathways is extremely important. This actually helps strengthen the weaker auditory pathway while still allowing learning to occur.<\/li>\r\n    \r\n    <li><span class=\"bold\"><cite>AAR <\/cite>and <cite>AAS <\/cite> use specially <a href=\"https:\/\/www.allaboutlearningpress.com\/letter-tiles\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">color-coded letter tiles<\/a><\/span>. When your child has auditory processing issues, \u201cwordy\u201d explanations can create unnecessary frustration for both of you. It is much more effective to <span class=\"italic\">demonstrate <\/span>a reading or spelling concept with the letter tiles. Using the letter tiles can make all the difference for a child struggling to understand a concept.<\/li>\r\n    \r\n    <li><span class=\"bold\">The programs are scripted in a clear and concise way without excess verbiage.<\/span> Scripted lessons allow you to concentrate on your child rather than on trying to figure out how to teach a skill.<\/li>\r\n    \r\n    <li><span class=\"bold\"><cite>AAR <\/cite>and <cite>AAS <\/cite>have built-in review in every lesson<\/span>. Children with auditory processing difficulties generally need lots of review in order to retain concepts. You can\u2019t assume that everything that has been <span class=\"italic\">taught <\/span>has been <span class=\"italic\">learned<\/span>. The review boxes in <span class=\"italic\">AAR <\/span>and <span class=\"italic\">AAS <\/span>lessons allow you to customize your child\u2019s review, concentrating only on the skills and concepts that need additional review. Your APD learner likely has a short attention span, so you want <span class=\"italic\">every <\/span>minute of your lesson to count.<\/li>\r\n    \r\n    <li><span class=\"bold\">Both <cite>AAR <\/cite>and <cite>AAS <\/cite>are <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/make-spelling-logical\/\" title=\"Make Spelling Logical\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">logical<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/the-no-gaps-approach\/\" title=\"The No Gaps Approach\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">incremental<\/a><\/span>.

Pausing as you give instructions can also help your child process what you\u2019re saying.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Allow for \u201clag time\u201d while your child processes what you have said. Let your words sink in for a few seconds before expecting a response or before moving on.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Be concise and direct\u2014don\u2019t attempt long oral explanations. Give simple instructions, one step at a time. Instructing your child to \u201cclean up your room, put on your pajamas, and brush your teeth\u201d may be more than your child can handle.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Work in a quiet room with as few distractions as possible. Listening and processing is hard enough for an APD child; distractions make it nearly impossible.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Optimize concentration and minimize \u201cmeltdowns\u201d by holding lessons during your child\u2019s best time of day.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Make sure that your child can watch your mouth as you speak. This is especially important if she easily confuses similar-sounding words. In APD learners, the ears and brain don\u2019t work well together, so watching your mouth will help bring everything into synch. The sounds get \u201ccrisper\u201d when the brain has visual cues to go along with the auditory cues.<\/li>\r\n    <li>As much as possible, <span class=\"italic\">show <\/span>rather than <span class=\"italic\">tell<\/span>.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Visual demonstrations are much more effective than oral explanations. If your APD child is struggling to learn a new concept or skill, try to teach the concept with a visual demonstration.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Don't overwhelm your child. Children with auditory processing issues can become disruptive or argumentative when they don\u2019t understand something. If your child becomes frustrated and you sense a meltdown coming, back up in the lesson to a point where your child is more comfortable. Try presenting the new information again when your child seems ready to tackle it.<\/li>\r\n    <li>Consistent and constant review encourages success, especially for APD learners. To ensure steady progress, be sure to include review in your lessons every single day.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"center\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.allaboutlearningpress.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/granola-mom-2.jpg\" alt=\"Auditory Processing Disorder: How can I help my child? - All About Learning Press\" width=\"600\" \/>\r\n\r\n<p>Your child will face many challenges as an APD learner, but there is hope.
