How do you keep students with learning disabilities from getting frustrated? I have not experienced a student that I am aware of yet with this type of disability. I would imagine showing extreme patience with the student would help as well as giving the student more time to complete assignments.

Is it appropriate to organize students in groups of two due to the small size of a class or let the entire class work as one large group? My classes are small and usually not over 10 students.

I have found during a lecture that if I repeat key points at various times it helps the students to retain those points. I often wrap up my class by posing key questions that cause the students to have to state those points which I have mentioned several times during the lecture.
