Have you ever been told your child will out grow their #Dyslexia? This doesn't happen, but hopefully they will learn strategies to support it. Watch Jan Hasbrouck, Ph.D. and I discuss this myth: youtube.com/watch?v=wEK44S… #DyslexiaAwarenessMonth

Sometimes it feels like those with those with #ADHD can't ever focus, but in reality they can. Learn more about this myth by watching this youtu.be/5VR8cH3i4Do #ADHDAwarenessMonth

Coke bottling is something that happens a lot at my house. School can be so taxing on my kiddos that when they get home to a safe place, they are just ready to explode! You can learn more about why this happens by watching this youtu.be/zUfB_nHFq_c #AutismAwarenessMonth

OMG! This is the worst. I hate it when dyslexic kids/adults are told they aren't trying or that they are just lazy. I remember being told this, I've been told this about my children. It simply isn' true. Jan Hasbrouck, Ph.D. & I debunked this myth youtu.be/VNe78Lqh_7E

So this popped up on my feed today… we need to demand better for our children, teens and adults who face the consequences of reading failure either personally or through someone they love. apple.news/AzR_O-UwaRDqD6… #RightToRead

Thank you to Nate Joseph for including me in this project. Let's make every minute of intervention time count for students at risk of reading failure! #RightToRead link.springer.com/epdf/10.1007/s…

As a dyslexic child I was put into a few reading interventions that didn't work for me before I found one that did. This was very hard on my self esteem. Please don't just assume the interventions that are offered to your child are going to work.

Happy #TBT! Found this old calendar where I was Miss July 2010 💁‍♀️ Back then, I was told I was too #dyslexic to become a certified #specialed teacher. Didn’t get that title—but I’ve still changed lives, and I’m proud of the path I’ve taken. 💙 #Dyslexia #RightToRead

So happy to see this finally happening—after decades of advocacy, change is coming! I’ve been pushing for years, & the changes for kids at risk of reading failure. Excited for the symposium and what’s ahead for public education. #RightToRead #LiteracyMatters
