Experience Dyslexia® Simulation
One of the best ways to understand dyslexia is to experience having it yourself. This simulation is an invaluable tool for schools looking to deepen teacher and parent understanding of students with dyslexia. It provides a unique opportunity to bring staff and families together for experiential learning and powerful discussion afterward.
