EXPLAIN WHAT WORD WILL BE USED AROUND DYSLEXICS SO THEY KNOW WHAT IT MEANS | DYSLEXIA FRIENDLY
Manage episode 311642307 series 3161583
Why: Specific words can help make this “thing” causing your child’s reading and writing issues feel more defined and manageable.
What to say: “You may hear the word dyslexia at school or at the doctor’s office. Now that we know dyslexia is causing your reading challenges, we can use that word, too. Soon we’ll start working with your teachers to create what’s called an Individualized Education Program, or IEP for short. It will list your goals for reading and writing this year, how to reach them and how your teachers are going to help.”
