This workshop is specifically for children with dyslexia, aged 8-12. We will focus on the science behind dyslexia and explain how the brain learns to read. We will also analyse any myths the children have about their dyslexia and do some wellbeing art-based activities which will focus on the children’s strengths. Finally we will introduce some study skills tips and strategies the children can use to support their learning in school and look at examples of assistive technology.
