Dyslexia
July 2018
I hope everyone is having a safe and relaxing summer! It’s hard to imagine that we’ll be headed back to school next month! You’ll find the Quick Links box updated with information regarding to the collection of screening data, a revised parent communication letter and professional development opportunities.
Regional Professional Development Centers continue to offer dyslexia related presentations and trainings. Please check http://mylearningplan.com for those events. If you live in the St. Louis area, http://edplus.org or in the Webb City region, http://southwestcenter.org Please utilize this group of passionate and knowledgeable consultants.
Save the date! We will be hosting three live webinars in the coming weeks. These will be recorded and posted on the dyslexia page upon completion.
- July 19th Dyslexia; the myths and the science
- July 26th Characteristics and Supports Pre-K through 5
- August 2nd Characteristics and Supports 6 though 12
Participating and/or viewing these webinars can serve to meet the 2 hour mandate for professional development.
Please let me know if there’s anything I can do to assist you. Your dedication and commitment to serve all students is greatly appreciated!
Best,
Kim
