Jen Robinson's Nov 13, 2019 Growing Bookworms Newsletter shared a link to this Expert Roundtable: Dispelling the Myths and Misunderstandings About Dyslexia from Reading By Example.
It's a crash-course on how to make sure we're not reinforcing misleading stereotypes and false information on Dyslexia.
And what's particularly useful is that asking six different experts -- with different perspectives -- the same question,
"What are the one or two things that you believe are most commonly misunderstood about dyslexia today, and what message would you want to share with educators, parents and/or students to increase their awareness of the reality?"
We get a much more fully-realized picture than if we just spoke with a single expert.
It's a good model for doing our homework as creators of content for children and teens.
Thanks to Jen for sharing the link, and to the six experts who shared their knowledge in the roundtable.

Illustrate and Write On,

I created a webinar for parents and teachers who have students with Dyslexia or other common reading problems if your interested you can see it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7-_gm12YSLM
Because authentic lit and children's books are so essential for parents and teachers to use to help build text fluency which is the biggest game changer you can work on.
