Scarborough’s Reading Rope is a visual model that shows how skilled reading is made up of many different skills working together. It combines word recognition (phonological awareness, decoding, and sight recognition) with language comprehension (background knowledge, vocabulary, language structure, verbal reasoning, and literacy knowledge). Each of the strands, usually shown in different colors, represents one of these key skills, and together they contribute to a strong “rope” of reading fluency.

Decoding Dyslexia South Dakota would like to welcome Laci Volkers as our new President!!

Laci is a mother of five living near Volga, SD and a passionate advocate for children with learning differences. She is a Partners in Policymaking graduate, certified ADHD Management Specialist, and holds degrees in healthcare and leadership. Having children with dyslexia and ADHD has fueled her commitment to expanding early screening, structured literacy, and educator support across South Dakota. Laci looks forward to working with families, educators and legislators for the children of South Dakota.

Dyslexia is neurobiological in origin, meaning we have differences in our brain structure and function, which typically affects phonological processing, which is just a fancy way of saying our brains are ‘wired’ differently to what is considered ‘normal’ and this can lead to difficulties with reading and spelling.
It didn’t come about because you didn’t try hard enough.
It didn’t happen because you weren’t read to enough as a child.
And, it definitely didn’t come about because you weren’t smart enough!
Dyslexia is NO one’s fault!
We just have a different and unique way of thinking.
In fact it helps us to problem-solve in ways that others might not think of, so you could almost say our thinking is dystinct!
So be proud to be dyslexic, because after all, how will the world’s problems and challenges be solved if we all think alike!
