Hey Dyslexia Devoted Fans! I hope you are well. A very kind member of this community sent me a sweet message this week, since I am normally very consistent at sending you guys resources and podcast episodes, but suddenly stopped. So I thought I'd give a little update and a surprise bonus to make up for my absence. Unfortunately, my asthma has hit an uncontrolled state with no end in sight. I can make it through the work day with my students, but by the evenings and weekends I'm wiped out with frequent time spent on my oxygen machine or nebulizer. Our US healthcare system is useless as I have a potential treatment, but my insurance company has denied the treatment repeatedly. So I'm figuring this out as I go as I get very good at mellow projects like crochet and knitting. I have a fully edited podcast episode for you about dyslexia math that I promise to post very soon. Hopefully this weekend. I've been learning a ton from Marilyn Zecher in her Multisensory Math 2 course! She is a wealth of knowledge! LUCKY SURPRISE!35% off all workshops/courses today & tomorrow!

Happy Sunday! I usually like to send my emails on Thursdays, but life has been rough to say the least. I've been dealing with a severe asthma flare for the last couple of months and many trips to hospitals, so I take my bursts of energy when I can, so here we are on a Sunday morning finding the happiness in a good day. One thing that gives me a burst of energy is when I see my students shine. Two weeks ago I got an email from a dad of my former student that made me happy cry with pride. I...
Happy Friday! I have been blown away by the amazing feedback from the people who attended the SOR Summit!

Lisa, thank you so much for information as well as the dyslexia challenge!" "I have heard so much about dyslexia, but not much about dysgraphia. This was a well organized presentation that informed and...
