Description
Class Experience
This one-time class will consist of a small group of 3 to 8 participants ages 6 to 9. This class welcomes all levels. It will be relevant for students newly identified as well as students who have known they have dyslexia for a while. We will review some facts about dyslexia with the use of some visual slides that help show that students with dyslexia may have difficulty with speed and memory. However, students with dyslexia also have strengths such as visual aids, patterns, context,...
We will be able to answer the following questions. What is dyslexia? What are some misconceptions? Who are some successful people in various fields with dyslexia? We will then learn about the strengths some people with dyslexia exhibit and reflect on individual strengths.
