Empowering Minds: Effective Strategies for Teaching Grammar to Students with Dyslexia – a webinar by Vicky Kaperoni
Dear Colleagues,
October is Dyslexia Awareness Month.
“It aims to support those with this learning difficulty. Dyslexia is not a disorder of any kind; but is a learning impairment that causes problems with writing, reading, and spelling. The intelligence of dyslexic people is unaffected. This misunderstanding of the condition leads to stigmas, which Dyslexia Awareness Month aims to eradicate.”
