Thanks, Daniella de Winter from SoftEnglish, for sharing this!

Dyslexic students experience lots of difficulties when reading and writing. This infographic from Understood.org suggests some classroom accommodations to help them!
Our books incorporate some of those recommendations, such as:

* Use large-print text for worksheets

* Simplify directions with keywords

* Give step-by-step instructions

* Pre-teach new and important concepts

*Show examples of work that is correct to serve as a model

Spread the word, share the knowledge! Everyones can learn to read!! =)

Reminder - do not miss the deadline of the writing competition on 10th December! And a BIG THANK YOU to Ecotrel Luxembourg for supporting it! Here is a brief interview with Ecotrel and why they decided to support The Earth Is Our Home:

1. Please, could you present Ecotrel briefly? What does your company do?
Ecotrel takes over the obligation of producers of electric and electronic appliance in managing and financing the collection and the recycling of the end of use appliances.
2. What is motivating Ecotrel? What is the future your company wants to create?
Ecotrel works for a more sustainable world within both concepts of extended producers responsibility and circular economy.
3. How can children get involved and help in achieving this?
Children must be aware to buy and use appliances produced in the respect of the environment and to sort the end of life appliances to put them in the right separate collection in order to make the recycling possible.
4. Is there anything Ecotrel can learn from children?
Children are the future of the world and in this frame their point of view is important to feel the new trends of the market.

Wow, learn English through storytelling. It is suitable to ask questions, too - like "Smart or stupid?" It is even better to ask, "Who's smart and who's stupid?" in this case.
