Teaching Students with Dyslexia: How to Recognize Early Warning Signs, Provide Effective Intervention, and Unlock Student Achievement

If Henry had a dime for every time his teacher asked him to try harder, he’d be a rich kid! This experience is common for students with dyslexia, which is often referred to as the hidden disability. Although Henry and students like him are trying hard, they struggle with underlying processing difficulties associated with dyslexia. Their struggle is often unexpected in relation to their other adequate or even exceptional abilities—hence the admonishment. The purpose of this paper is to help educators recognize the warning signs of dyslexia and provide the appropriate interventions so that students like Henry can become successful readers and motivated learners.
