An introduction to dyslexia 03.02.21

This course is intended for those new to working with children with dyslexia

This presentation begins with an exploration of the term dyslexia.

Several definitions will be examined as well as a consideration of a variety of strengths as well as weaknesses associated with the condition.

There will also be an examination of a wide range of early indicators of dyslexia, pertinent to the classroom, including the signs of dyslexia associated with motor development, reading writing, mathematics and memory.

Following this, the training will focus on how teaching staff can most effectively meet the needs of pupils with dyslexia, exploring the “dyslexia-friendly” classroom, communication and importance of supporting the pupil’s memory.
