Holly is dyslexic. In this clip she’s been asked to write a short message on an Easter egg. Under pressure (time and audience) she hesitates with 2 of the 3 words she needs to write.

These are just a few of the strategies I encourage you to keep in your own toolkit.

Just one of the many gifts of neurodiversity 🎁

Learning is not only about the academics. 💙

Neurodiversity is a positive thing! The more of us who draw attention to that fact it is normal variation, the sooner we will have a society where more neurodiverse children can confidently share the way they see the world, their strengths (as well as challenges) and the way they learn.

It can be hard for children to open up about their struggles. We want to make sure that we live in a society that is dyslexia-friendly, making it easier for children to accept their dyslexia, ask for support, and reach their full potential. Who's with us?
