|
Presented by Erin Burke, Dyslexia Specialist
Tuesday, February 23rd from 7:00-8:00 PM Lindenwood University Anheuser-Busch Leadership Room (4th Floor) Just because a student has above average cognitive ability doesn't mean they might not also struggle with reading. “Stealth” dyslexia is a term used to describe bright kids whose ability may mask their difficulty with the basic reading skills necessary for academic success. Erin Burke, Certified Dyslexia Specialist, will share signs of an underlying learning difficulty in reading and accommodations which can be used at home and in the school setting to support these students.
