Over the past few years, we have learned a lot of tips for supporting a child with dyslexia at home. Through various therapies, technology supports, and IEP meetings, I wanted to share more information that we have learned and what has made the difference for our daughter who has dyslexia who is now thriving in school.
Our story with Dyslexia
When I was in the second grade, I was evaluated and diagnosed with “borderline dyslexia.” I don’t think it was really understood much in the 1990s. I know that I wrote a few letters and numbers backwards for years and was never a very strong reader. I think I received reading help once or twice a week for a year, but that’s really all I remember.
