Didactics Strategy Using ICT, for Kids with Trisomy of Pair 21

Trisomy 21, better known as Down syndrome, it is a chromosomal abnormality that establishes the presence of a set of clinical, morphological, and anatomical characteristics in the person suffering from it. People with Down syndrome can generally do most of the daily activities, such as walking, talking, getting dress, or playing. However, they generally do these things later than other children. Children with Down syndrome have developmental patterns similar to genetically healthy children, only they do so more slowly and going through some difficulties. The slowness in their abilities to process, perceive, and elaborate responses to situations in their environment implies the need to respect them and give them the time they need, supporting them with verbal incentives such as affectionate words, repetitions of words, songs or music, among still others, to reinforce their confidence in themselves. For this reason, under a mixed research approach and using as instruments for the collection of data to the observation, the unstructured interview and the survey, a didactic tool of a playful type was developed using Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), such as children's learning support are Down syndrome, in order to help them to develop their reading skills.
