About the writer Dyslexia toolkit was written by Dr Helen Ross, a leading voice on dyslexia within UK education. She is an experienced public speaker, international consultant and researcher, and contributor to a wide range of publications; Helen is also dyslexic. She supports families, teachers and organisations to better understand the implications of dyslexia, neurodiversity and special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). In this toolkit, Helen draws on her experiences as a classroom teacher, SENDCo and dyslexia expert to help you to understand what dyslexia is, which aspects of learning can be affected by dyslexia and what you can do to support dyslexic learners.

This resource can be used along side my other Big Spelling resources. Big Spellings can be used in a primary or junior school so that each child has a spelling list to suit their ability. (see my other resources which include initial assessments and full instructions). These lists can be used for a few children in each class who really struggle to retain spellings. Each week these Dyslexia Friendly spellings consist of the same 5 High Frequency Words for 3 weeks in a row. Each week the other 5 spellings change and are phonic based, with the easier sounds first. PLEASE LEAVE FEEDBACK!

This set of resources developed by ‘British Dyslexia Association’, can offer support to teachers working with children with dyslexia. This resource provides information on how dyslexia can affect the eyes.

A 10 slide PowerPoint presentation on dyslexia and suggested strategies.

Dyslexia is a learning difference that primarily affects the skills involved in accurate and fluent word reading and spelling. Characteristic features of dyslexia are difficulties in phonological awareness, verbal memory and verbal processing speed. Co-occurring difficulties may be seen in aspects of language, motor co-ordination, mental calculation, concentration and personal organisation, but these are not, by themselves, markers of dyslexia. A good indication of the severity and persistence of dyslexic difficulties can be gained by examining how the individual responds or has responded to well-founded intervention. This resource includes - Possible learning differences in the classroom Dyslexia strengths Careers that embrace Dyslexic strengths How to create a Dyslexic friendly classroom Suggested interventions to support children with dyslexia

This useful ‘screening form’ identifies dyslexic tendencies and is an excellent tool to determine whether or not a child requires a formal assessment. This form was put together in consultation with a UK dyslexic specialist. Please note: Individual pupil observations should be carried out over 2 to 3 weeks and this screening form does not diagnose dyslexia.
