perceptual skills and attention to the adoption of materials as
well as contributions surveyed variables on school
achievement in the program area of “The seasons, changes
caused by their replacement in nature and society”. The
sample consisted of 93 interviewees with mild intellectual
disability, aged 8 to 12 years and 3 months, both sexes, no

the ability of respondents we used the first and third subtest

The results show a significant correlation between estimated
