Read Into This host, Beth Lyons, welcomes Stephen Hurley from VoicEd Radio yo co-host as they discuss Dyslexia Awareness Month with Alicia Smith, the Executive Director of Dyslexia Canada, and Stacey Morrison Hadden, a literacy consultant with the Durham Catholic District School Board. The conversation starts with unpacking dyslexia, a complex term that’s important for educators to understand.
The panel looks at some of the common misconceptions about dyslexia and learning to read and the assumptions about learning to read that current research challenges and pushes back against. Alicia and Stacey share how teacher librarians and educators can support students with dyslexia, how the Right to Read inquiry shifted awareness in the education system about dyslexia, and which resources do they recommend educators look into to learn more about teaching all children to read.
