My Project

Imagine facing a challenge that makes reading, writing, and spelling feel nearly impossible. This is a struggle that millions of students with dyslexia experience every day. To help educators and others better understand the difficulties faced by individuals with dyslexia, I am requesting funding for the Experience Dyslexia Simulation Kit.

This interactive tool provides a hands-on experience, allowing participants to gain insight into the daily challenges of dyslexia.

By "walking in the shoes" of a person with dyslexia, educators, administrators, and support staff can develop deeper empathy and a stronger commitment to implementing effective strategies for students.

Not only will this resource be invaluable for my own professional growth, but I also plan to share it with colleagues at professional development sessions, team meetings, and parent workshops. Together, we can create a more informed and supportive school community, helping students with dyslexia thrive.

The Experience Dyslexia Simulation Kit is a powerful tool designed to raise awareness and deepen understanding of dyslexia. It includes interactive activities such as reading, writing, and processing tasks that mimic the experiences of individuals with dyslexia.

When educators and parents better understand dyslexia, they are more equipped to provide the support and resources students need to succeed. This kit will allow me to share this critical knowledge with others, fostering a school environment that is inclusive, empathetic, and responsive to the needs of students with dyslexia.
