Giving us more of the same intervention that hasn’t worked before isn’t going to help us.
The intervention has to change not the child!

In honour of his visit to Australia, I’m reposting my favourite words of wisdom from the awesome Henry Winkler!

Quote: Henry Winkler

Standardised tests were designed to test only one type of thinker & can never reflect the true intelligence of those of us that think differently to what society deems ‘normal’.
A mark is just a number & does not change how amazing you are!
Quote: the awesome Ben Fogle #dyslexia

L💚VE this! Still one of my favourite quotes from the awesome Lyn Stone Lyn Stone and taken from her influential work “Reading for Life”.
If you haven’t already got a copy you need one now!!
#reading #literacy #livinglegend #australianliteracyroyalty

Dyslexia is sometimes so overwhelming and all-consuming, that in our efforts to keep up with everyone else, we forgot that there are just some things we won’t be good at. Life isn’t like that.
You can’t be good at everything.
So, find your passions and just go for it!

Reading problems don’t get better with time. They get better with intervention!

Rule No.1 🎯
#lookatthewordsnotthepictures #reading #eyesontheprize #dyslexia #untileveryonecanread

We may not be able to articulate why, but we know that we’re just not ‘getting it’ & the feelings of frustration & thinking we’re just ‘dumb’, can be detrimental to our self esteem & long term mental health. That is why early identification of reading challenges is essential!

Wishing everyone a Merry #Christmas and a happy & healthy 2024! 🎄Thank you for letting me share my year with you. I am so incredibly grateful for your amazing support & encouragement & look forward to sharing more of my #dyslexic journey with you all in 2024! Georgia ❤️

It takes 4 times longer to intervene in 4th grade than in 1st grade. The longer we wait to identify a child that struggles to read, the more time, money & remediation is needed, not to mention the impact on our mental health. #dyslexia #dontwait
