Talking to parentsTalking to parents• Be positive:-Consider carefully his strengths and his weaknesses • Be patient and persevering:-develop a good parent/ teacher relationship with him: patiently teach him to do things for himself• Be aware of:-the problems, symptoms and signs of stress-the ignorance and misunderstanding you will meet-avoid failure situations at home • Be practical:-read to him -television: watch it with him and discuss what you see-keep him motivated


Difficult tasks for a parent to teach their

childrenif you are right-handed, and your child is left-handed, you will always FACE him when showing them, but if you are both right-handed (or left-handed) you must stand BEHIND them.

•fastening shoes-use a piece of white cord, half of which I dye red, and place the red on the right•fastening buttons -always start at the bottom, where you can see what you are doing


Talking to teachersTalking to teachers• Use pictures and memory hooks• Use the labels 'vowels' and 'consonants', and teach

about the jobs they do.• Teach joined-up writing from an early stage• Let children develop their own word dictionary where

they can practice difficult, new or irregular words.• Talk about letters, words and stories to create an

interest • Use technical aids to individualize work - tape recorder

and earphones, computers etc.• Play games to reinforce learning.• Give as much practice in reading, writing and spelling

as possible to develop automatic skills, and remember - dyslexic children need more practice than most children.
