The other day I was having breakfast with a friend of mine, and she mentioned that she was learning about dyslexia. Her son is dyslexic, and she is starting to realize that she might be as well. During the conversation I realized that I know nothing about dyslexia, other than that it affects a person’s reading ability. I have had dyslexic students in my classroom, and so far the only thing I know is that dyslexia is not the same for everyone. So, now that I am seeking to remedy my ignorance and learn more about this form of neurodiversity. I don’t know if this is right or not, while I will use the term disability, I am going to intentionally try and avoid using the word disorder while talking about dyslexia. Grab some tea or coffee (or whatever it is that you drink) and join me as I learn about this form of neurodiversity.
