dyslexia cafe: 2 book titles to try with dyslexic teens
http://dyslexiacafe.blogspot.com/2014/07/2-book-titles-for-disengaged-teens.html
Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Friday, July 25, 2014. 2 book titles to try with dyslexic teens. Here's 2 titles I'm about to try reading to my class of teens. A wonderfully imaginative teacher told me they worked really well with her class. They look a bit bleak at first, I agree, but she said they have a triumph-over-adversity tone that worked amazingly well. Check out the old classic. A Time To Kill.

dyslexia cafe: The accommodation you should have
http://dyslexiacafe.blogspot.com/2007/12/accomodation-you-should-have.html
Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Monday, December 3, 2007. The accommodation you should have. Because you get to sit in a less stressful, less competitive environment -Who needs to watch other students leaving the classroom in their droves while you are only half done? It's much better to avoid all that by being somewhere else. The other benefit of taking your exam away from the classroom is that you get extra time, typically time and a half. All innocent tho...

dyslexia cafe: A favorite novel for reluctant readers
http://dyslexiacafe.blogspot.com/2014/07/a-favorite-novel-for-reluctant-readers.html
Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Saturday, July 26, 2014. A favorite novel for reluctant readers. Gary Paulsen. He's the real deal. At the Teach Jake to Read. Here are some titles I'm adding to my pile for most reluctant readers of all. Is a tried and true favorite. It's an exciting, believable story of one boy's survival against the elements and it's fairly easy reading. The author lives in the wilds and, in the perfect small. Is a skeleton detective. Great ...

http://dyslexiacafe.blogspot.com/2014/07/fast-forward-computer-program-for.html
Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Friday, July 25, 2014. Fast For Word- a computer program for auditory processing/phonological awareness. A few days ago I was speaking at a conference in Melbourne, Australia, and got chatting with the cameraman. "I'm really interested in this," he told me. "My son struggled.". I asked what the problem was and what he had done. "It was auditory processing," he said, "but now my son's fine.". So now I was really interested too!

Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Sunday, January 13, 2013. Dictation software - reviewed by a savvy teen. A couple of times on this blog I have mentioned voice-to-text software. Specifically, I’ve talked quite a bit about Dragon Dictate. Abbie (14) raves about using a big wall calendar. Her best tip: “I mark not just the date when something has to be finished, but the date when I need to start on it". Eli (13) is a dab hand at using Dragon Dictate. I have bee...

Helping someone with dyslexia? Came here by mistake? Whichever it is, welcome! Thursday, October 11, 2007. And the computer writes what you say. If you struggle with typing/writing your essays, you should check out a great computer program known as a "speech to text" program. I asked an assistive technology expert how it all works, what it costs, and other stuff, and here are the answers. Ben, in simple terms, what IS this program? How do I start? How much is it? Which students get most use out of this?
