301: Tech Tool for Dyslexia: How Lexercise Can Help Homeschoolers

 

This episode with guest Tauna Meyer  from Proverbial Homemaker discusses Lexercise, a tech tool designed to help homeschooling families with children who have dyslexia. Tauna is sponsored by Lexercise but is really seeing a difference with her son.

Key Points:

  • Homeschooling a child with dyslexia can be challenging, especially when traditional methods fail. Finding affordable and effective support can be difficult.
  • Lexercise is a research-based, online program that uses the Orton-Gillingham approach to support children with dyslexia. It offers structured literacy, gamified practice, and therapist guidance.

    • Benefits:

      • Improved reading fluency and confidence
      • Addresses letter formation, spelling, and language processing issues
      • Offers self-paced video lessons from dyslexia experts
      • Provides daily practice games with points and rewards
      • Extensive documentation and support, including access to a therapist
      • More affordable than in-person therapy options

        • Considerations:

          • Screen time management may be necessary
          • The program uses “word neighborhood” rules and “memory hooks” which may be unfamiliar to some parents
          • The basic program may require additional support for children with severe dyslexia
