If you are looking at the early elementary level, you'll want to know that it is as common to reverse single letters at times as it is to never reverse letters. It comes from not yet having enough experience with print, and that tells you what activities to do. The child needs more experience with print (reading), so the "activity" you'd do would be to guide the student through as much reading as possible. Sometimes it is possible to kill many birds with one stone!
Date: Sun, 12 Aug 2007 09:13:06 -0400 Hello Everyone I was hoping for some input in the area of dyslexia. While I now that it is not my job as a teacher to diagnose students, I have noticed children that read d's as b's and q's as p's. I would never come right out and claim that these students are in fact dyslexic, but I would like to help them in anyway that I can. How does dyslexia affect Comprehension? What strategies work best in helping students that may suffer from this condition? I am looking for activities that would be useful at the early elementary level.
