title: [The child with learning problems].
abstract: Learning problems seem to have increased in the last decades in approximately 10% of the school population during the first school years. There are many causes but one of the most common are obstetric problems; also immaturity of the child because of this environment respresented in the lack of integration of his self and of his spatial concepts. Not every child who does not learn to read is dyslexic. To establish this diagnosis a complete examination that shows alterations in all areas of perception is necessary. These problems can be prevented with adequate management, starting with prenatal consultation and later on when children attend nursery school. Through games and pedagogic exercises, children will have a chance to integrate their perceptual functions and their speech, which is absolutely necessary for their learning to read and write.
