After each section parents and children will have a chance to communicate to each other using “Now I understand why….”, “I never knew….”, or “Learning this made me feel …” prompts. We will discuss statistics about students with dyslexia and the importance of dealing with it, having understanding and acceptance and getting the help your dyslexic student needs. Since we as presenters are dyslexic, we will share age appropriate stories both funny and emotional that will encourage understanding and later conversation.
