(I also tutor dyslexic/dysgraphic students.) What one student needs is different from what another needs. Value a child's oral participation in your classrooms, for many this is the way they can show you what they know best. For others any pressure to perform in a classroom is overwhelming. If their assessments/test are significantly different from what you think they are capable of doing ask them the questions in private and give them plenty of time to process your question and their response. The reality is that for a dysgraphia/dyslexic child there is usually a significant difference in what they produce on a classroom test and what they can give you orally. While for a non-dyslexic/dysgraphic student the results don't change significantly. fromupnorthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08025135264282355552noreply@blogger.com
