Stirling, N. Spaulding Quote and Preparation / Full Mustafa  , Diagnostic estimation measure for reading difficulties preparation / Fathi Mustafa Zayat, diagnostic estimation measure for writing difficulties preparation / Fathi Mustafa Zayat In order to select the sample of the study, the teacher's manual and the student booklet were prepared, and the learning was prepared , A test was also prepared measure the reading and understanding of the map in pupils with learning difficulties (reading/writing) The two study groups were selected and their tools applied tribally to the experimental and control groups and then teaching to the experimental group using the entrance of the multiple senses, Teaching to the control group using the usual method, the study tools were applied after-school ing supremo students (reading/writing) study groups The results of the research showed statistically significant differences between the average grades of students of the experimental group and the grades of the students of the control group in the dimensional application of the map skills test in students with learning difficulties (reading/writing)  .      )
