School from the Dyslexic View
An eye opening seminar about dyslexia by Dawn Matthews of Dyslexic Centre Australia
Dyslexia is becoming more common. There are frequently 3 or 4 dyslexics in a class and most go undiagnosed.
Because Dyslexics’ brains are wired differently, Dyslexics perceive and learn differently from other children and need to be taught slightly differently. Many, are instead, being given drugs.
It’s not about labels – its about finding out how a kid learns.
Every child deserves to be taught in a way s/he learns. Dyslexic kids are easy to teach and very bright.
In this way all children are able to reach their true potential. This is a right. Not a privilege.
