Dyslexia
Resources
Definition: "Dyslexia
is a type of
reading disability
usually manifested as a difficulty with written language,
particularly with
reading and
spelling.
Evidence suggests that it is a result of a difference in how
the
brain
processes written and/or verbal
language. It
is separate and distinct from reading difficulties resulting
from other causes, such as deficiencies in intelligence,
non-neurological deficiency with vision or hearing, or from
poor
or inadequate reading instruction."
