Did you know that anywhere from 1 in 4 to almost half of students with dyslexia also have ADHD? Both dyslexia and ADHD are commonly associated with difficulties in executive function.

Students from the University of Wyoming College of Education recently used some of our guidebooks as a resource in their Literacy Difficulties course. After reading, they discussed the text and shared how the guidebooks would be helpful for them and their colleagues, and the families of their students.

Want to use the guidebooks for research and discussion with your colleagues? You can download them for free here: https://www.landmarkschool.org/about-us/publications-resources/guidebooks
