Please join the Signal Hill PAC on February 23rd at 7:00 pm at Signal Hill Elementary School in Pemberton for a session on Dyslexia.
In this presentation Cathy McMillan the Founding Director of Dyslexia BC will be using some “hands on simulation” exercises from “Dyslexia for a Day” designed by The Dyslexia Training Institute to give you an understanding of what its like to have dyslexia in a classroom.
Simulations will give you a chance to experience what it feels like to struggle with reading and writing when you are intellectually capable.
A follow up discussion will explore about what dyslexia is and what it is not!
If time permits, there will also be a screening of the award winning 52 min documentary style film “The Big Picture Rethinking Dyslexia”, by the late James Redford. This light hearted film is about a young man (Dylan Redford) who is off to college.
