For years, dyslexia has been unnamed and misunderstood, especially in public school settings. Due to new legislation, dyslexia is coming to the forefront of the conversation in Florida, especially as it relates to the Science of Reading. Katie and Brittany have been presenting this workshop for the last 2 years for preservice educators at the University of Tampa as part of their Human Exceptionalities class, as well as at conferences for FCIS (Florida Council of Independent Schools). We've also shared this presentation as we have consulted with independent schools, charter schools and VPK programs around the Tampa Bay area to dispel myths about dyslexia, to help educators better support learners with dyslexia in their classrooms, and to raise awareness of the importance of early intervention.
