Dyslexia Syllable Activities-20
Dyslexia was first described by British Doctor W.P Morgen in 1896. According to the European Dyslexia Association: “Dyslexia; It is a neurologically based difference in acquiring reading, spelling and writing skills.”
Dyslexia: It is a special learning condition that causes a person to have problems in reading, writing and language skills despite having normal or superior intelligence level. Dyslexia, which is generally observed as reading difficulty, also affects attention and memory.
According to Samuel T. Orton (1920) and other psychologists, the common features of dyslexia are as follows:
-Having difficulty learning to read
-Reading speed is below expected
-Skip letters while writing
- Bad writing
-Skip letters while reading
-Reading by changing words while reading
-Difficulty reading
– Difficulty writing
-Don't mix letters together (like b, d, p)
-Writing numbers backwards (such as 3-6-9…)
-“6-9″,”3-8″,7-4″ Having difficulty distinguishing numbers such as
-Difficulty understanding and explaining what you read
-Having difficulty memorizing subjects that require sequential memorization (order of months, order of days of the week).
-Difficulty memorizing multiplication tables or counting rhythmically
-Mixing colors
-Difficulty distinguishing right from left
– Difficulty expressing yourself or your opinion on a subject well
-Confusing addition and subtraction signs
-Difficulty with motor skills such as tying your shoes
-Not wanting to go to school
-Skip rows and lines while writing
-Difficulty in writing spelling rules appropriately
-Confusing dotted and undotted letters when writing and reading
In order for a child to be diagnosed with dyslexia, there must be no problem with his or her intelligence level. In other words, children who have language (reading, writing, speaking) problems, even though they are as successful as their peers in other areas or more skillful than their peers, can be diagnosed with dyslexia. Diagnosing dyslexia is entirely the responsibility of specialist doctors. Therefore, “is my child dyslexic?” Parents who say this should consult a child psychiatrist. Mothers, fathers, or various counselors should not diagnose dyslexia on their own, based on symptoms of learning disabilities.
