Hello Members!

Today is World Dyslexia Day (10 October), so let’s open up a discussion to talk about learning disorders such as:

  • dyslexia (a learning disorder that affects reading comprehension),
  • dyspraxia (a developmental coordination disorder that impacts writing ability),
  • dyscalculia (a learning disorder that affects number comprehension),
  • dysphasia (a language disorder that affects speech production and sometimes speech comprehension) and
  • attention deficit disorder (a neurological disorder that affects concentration)

Have you or a loved one suffered from any of these disorders during your childhood? How can we best support children touched by these conditions and help them to thrive in a school environment?

Let’s discuss this together, help each other and find solutions! Your experiences, questions and suggestions help make the community a better place for everyone.

 

Have a great day,

 

Michael from the Carenity Team

My daughter's been diagnosed with dyslexia. It's been very hard for her at school trying to learn how to read, but at least now we got an answer. I feel helpless sometimes. Anyone else have a kid with dyslexia?
