According to Niemann (1966), children learn through two different types of memory systems. First, the “habit or procedural” system, and second, the “representational or associative” system. The habit or procedural memory is the first to develop, developing within the first few months of life, and assists in the learning of new skills. Again, according to Niemann (1966), skills are “ acquired by repeated representation of the same stimulus until the task is correctly stored and accessed in memory and then learnt.” Niemann (1966) states that the striatum and neocortex control this kind of memory, and in autistic children, another kind of developmental disorder, without the diagnosis of mental retardation, these would be

Validity. The Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Medical Center released a best evidence statement (BESt). There are ten interventions and practices that were considered.

Early intervention plays a prominent role in children with intellectual disabilities. Daycares often notice any risk that a child may show early one. Being around children their own age and noticing a child is not at a certain milestone or close to the milestone should be brought to the parent’s attention. At this point the parents can watch and see if the see the signs at home and bring the information or concern to the child’s medical Doctor as soon as possible. Often times the daycare facilities have personal that will work with child while they are they and will help in the transition to the public school system when age appropriate. This a huge factor in keeping children on their upward path. At the public school they will have an IEP that is for that child only. In the IEP it will state what services the child will need to reach their education goal.
