  • Look at the characteristics of dyslexia and related reading disorders
  • Discover the early signs of a struggling reader
  • Explore the power and benefit of collaborative partnerships when conducting evaluations to identify specific needs of a Student
  • Identify interventions that address the visual impairment and reading challenges
