Dyslexia Awareness
In Greenhaw Primary and Nursery School we try to support our pupils with dyslexia through using strategies such as:
- Use of differentiation
- Clear learning outcomes
- Breaking tasks down into small steps
- Use of different teaching groups - paired/group/individual
- Visual aids
- Brain breaks
- Learning style preferences taken account of
- Use of dyslexia friendly fonts
- Coloured whiteboard backgrounds
- Extra time (only when needed)
- Building up self confidence/esteem
- Positive 'I can' approach (Growth Mindset)
