Part II: Dyslexia

By October 28, 2020Parent Tips

As promised I am continuing my focus on Dyslexia this month. If you haven’t already been to www.dyslexiadaily.com, I urge to you do so. Liz Dunoon’s article called ‘What is Dyslexia?’ is worth a read.

In this article, she outlines Dr. Sally Shaywitz’s 5 critical components of a reading program that all readers must master. These critical components are in strong alignment with how we teach reading here at Kip McGrath Hunter.

Another article written by Liz called ‘7 Things You Won’t Know About Dyslexia‘ is also worth reading. She shares the story of a very successful Dyslexic young man.

She also mentions many lines of work that Dyslexic people excel in; for example: Scientific Researcher, Medical Professional, Business Entrepreneur and the list goes on.

Here at Kip McGrath Hunter we pride ourselves in being those special someones who are there to help support children and their families in their quest for success.

I also suggest you look up famous Dyslexic people; the list is inspirational. All of these people mention having a special someone: a parent, a teacher or a coach, who truly believed in them and who helped them to develop a passionate interest in an area in which they could find success.
