If a teacher in a busy classroom learns that one of her students has recently been diagnosed with dyslexia it may be difficult to incorporate ways to help that child be successful. Aside from dyslexic children being pulled out for one on one help there are a few things that teachers can do to pull dyslexic students into the group and foster their skills.
It’s an article for teachers (but could be good for parents) about how to teach dyslexic students.
Alliteration is one thing that a teacher may choose to use in her group classroom lessons. It’s a great way to help all students, and especially dyslexic students, develop an understanding for patterns of sounds and even patterns of printed words. Singing and rhyming are other things a teacher can do to foster these skills. Multi-sensory lessons can also be helpful for groups of students that may or may not be dyslexic.
Key takeaways
- Alliteration and singing can help all children when it comes to learning.
- Singing can help with learning patterns and sounds associated with word families.
- Alternates to standard learning can help creative thinking.
Is your child struggling in school?
Get your free personalized learning roadmap
You describe what you see at home. We turn it into a plan you start this week.
- Answer 5 short questionnaires about what you already notice, 30–45 minutes at your own kitchen table
- Your child sits no test and gets no score: nothing to schedule, nothing for them to dread
- You do the answering, the AI does the writing, and a person reviews it before it reaches you
- Access all 40+ courses instantly: reading, math, focus, processing and more, with new ones added regularly
Why we use AI, plainly: it writes from a knowledge base our team maintains and audits. We work through it line by line and pull anything the evidence stops supporting. The roadmap you get on Tuesday reflects what we corrected on Monday, and a human still reads it before you do.
Your school district must evaluate your child free of charge if you ask in writing, whatever your income and whatever the outcome (US, 34 CFR 300.111 and 300.301(b)). That route takes time and answers a different question than you do. This one starts today, from what you already know.
Your answers stay yours. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not hand identifiable assessment data to outside AI companies to train their models.
A screener is a starting point, not a diagnosis. If your child might need formal accommodations (an IEP or 504 plan), or you suspect a vision, hearing or medical cause, pursue a professional evaluation too. That is the only route to those supports.
