Quick Guide on Dyslexia/ SpLD

I (Ginny Stacey) would not have believed what I say about dyslexia if I couldn't see it happening in my own mind. I devised several activities to generate dyslexic/ SpLD effects in non-dyslexic/ SpLD minds. Along with showing non-dyslexic/ SpLD people the problems, I'm also keen to show how and where the solutions can be found.

This list is a good route through the videos on this website.
