Final day of Black History Month, phenomenal episode w/ phenomenal guests!! Research told Black students long ago that they lacked reading proficiency and were below reading level. Decades later, research is telling the same story that they're still woefully behind. What is going on with research? With teaching practices? What should parents or teachers be watching for or doing differently? What should you do if the way your child/student reads, writes, or learns doesn’t match what’s widely considered “the norm”? And what about a learning difference or a dyslexia diagnosis? Then what? Guess what? There's good news on the other side, and value in realizing that not all learning looks the same...so how do you navigate that? Join the conversation and learn from THRIVING adults who learn differently or are parenting children who are. Bring your questions!
