I am a home tutor and I have a 7 year old kid who exhibits symptoms of dyslexia. The school has identified her as one of the students with weaker language learning skill.
The school has given some supplementary notes to help her, but I wanted to do more. Is there any way to better teach a dyslexia child?
And also, her attention span is extremely short and likes to argue with me, not following my instructions. Any way to catch her attention?
Thanks.
thast right watch tare zameen par its a bollywood film on kids siffering from dyslexia and how to mkae them clever students research on it if u dont understand the language or ask some indian guy to watch it and explain it to you
yes "taray zameen par" is the movie to go for. it tells a story of a TEACHER TO TEACH A BOY WITH DUSLEXIA.
every child has some interest or special quality about him….e.g. he may enjoy drawing…so teach him with pictures & figures.
watching that movie would do u good!
Watch "Tare Zameen Par". Its a bollywood movie and is on the same topic. it will also tell you how to deal with the kids who are suffering from dyslexia.
Use the Orton Gillingham Program for the younger students….for students who are fourth grade or higher the Wilson Reading system is excellent…you have to get certified, but after you learn it….it can teach ANYONE how to read. Originally designed for students with Dyslexia….do some research on Anna Gillingham and read about "multi-sensory instruction"
