Hi Jeff!
Thanks , it's very helpfull idea, I think it could help exercise remembering 
directions also for usual students, if you have more ideas about making 
commands and subjects  easily understood, for those children with  learning 
disabilities, I will be glad to hear about it.
                           thanks, Zehava
