I am requesting C-Pen readers to provide my students with dyslexia the ability to read grade-level materials that are not available digitally so they can use text to speech on the computer. I want to supply my students who have difficulty reading especially students with dyslexia a Reader Pen to use while at school. The C-Pen Reader is a scanning pen ideal for anyone who is learning English as a second language or those who suffer from literacy difficulties such as dyslexia. It is a small, portable, and lightweight device ideal for you to carry with you anywhere. Scanning pens, such as the C-Pen Reader, are a popular form of assistive technology which helps students with literacy difficulties access printed text. They are especially handy for those with dyslexia as they can read aloud text from books, labels, and documents. These tackle literacy difficulties surrounding reading that many dyslexic children and adults face on a day-to-day basis.
