Natalie Gilbert Professor Lord ED 300 Dyslexia
What is Dyslexia? Inability or challenge to read and/or spell Genetic and neurological
According to…Dyslexia is… The World Federation of Neurology “a disorder manifested by difficulty in learning to read despite conventional instruction, adequate intelligence and sociocultural opportunity” The International Dyslexia Association “is referred to as a learning disability because students with dyslexia may experience difficulties in other language skills such as spelling, writing, and speaking. It is often referred to as a learning disability because dyslexia can make it very difficult for a student to succeed academically in the typical instructional environment”
Where did Dyslexia come from? Dr. Samuel Torrey Orton U.S. neuropsychiatrist Utilized different approaches  Kinesthetic-tactile reinforcement Multisensory methods Orton-Gillingham approach “teaching the structure of written English using the sounds (phonemes), meaning units (morphemes) and common spelling rules” Result: neither one of the brain hemispheres governed the way language was formed
How the Brain is Effected Technology shows that the brain is not very active in the area that connects the speech sounds to word formation May have flaws in motor or visual parts in the brain
Who does it affect? It can affect ANYONE! It does not matter what type of race, gender, age, or background one might have It is GENETIC
Characteristics Difficult to: Spell Learn and remember words by sight Enjoy reading Remember language symbols Hear words and write them out Write words or letters clearly Comprehend reading and relating it to things
How can Dyslexia be Treated? A doctor usually indicates the first sign Neurological Exams can be given in order to find out whether the reading problems affect Intellectual Achievement Perceptual Motor Linguistic Adaptive capabilities Seek help because there are ways in which it can be cured!
Teaching Strategies Inform students that Dyslexia does not mean mentally slow Share with class famous people who have this Oral Blending Breaking down words into separate parts so that sounds are more clearly heard Segmentation Breaking apart words into sounds
Teaching Strategies Use Multisensory Approaches Utilize visual, auditory, and kinesthetic methods Put students with Dyslexia in the front so that they can easily be monitored Be supportive and no negative comments Give the student outlined notes so that the main points are clear Make opportunities for their strengths
