Dyslexia - I've heard of it. But what really is it?
Speaker: Thomas Warren-Price, Sendai Ikuei Gakuen High School
Date: Sunday, April 24th, 2005
Time: 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM
Location: Morioka, Iwate
Venue: Iwate International Plaza, Morioka
Description:
This presentation will help you develop an awareness of Dyslexia (and Dyspraxia). Dyslexia is a condition that affects people from all educational and social backgrounds. Discovered and acted upon early enough can significantly alter the way we teach or learn.
Besides just jumbling letters, any assumptions that dyslexia is a byword for stupidity and laziness will be dispelled as we examine the other fundamental common symptoms. Some dyslexia awareness activities will be included. This talk is applicable to educators, parents and students. In fact, everybody is most welcome.
