Workshop Full DescAre you ready to step into the shoes of students with dyslexia and gain invaluable insights into their world? Join us for Dyslexia Unveiled, a transformative workshop designed specifically for teachers and school leaders.
Dyslexia is more than just difficulty with reading and writing-it s a unique way of processing information that requires tailored support and understanding. In this immersive workshop, participants will delve deep into the challenges faced by individuals with dyslexia through the Dyslexia for a Day: Simulation Kit.
Participants will experience five different simulations, including two reading, two writing, and one processing simulation. Through these hands-on experiences, participants will walk away with profound understanding of the obstacles that individuals with dyslexia encounter daily.
But understanding is just the beginning. Dyslexia Unveiled, goes further by providing practical strategies and best practices in education and technology support for students with dyslexia. Armed with this knowledge, educators will be better equipped to create inclusive learning environments where every student can thrive.
Join us for a day of empathy, learning, and empowerment as we unlock the potential of every student with dyslexia. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of those who need it the most.
