Students explore the causes of dyslexia. They view CT sans and MRIs to view the brain and how it responds. Students read reports about dyslexia. They discuss the nature of dyslexia, its cause, how to diagnose it, and its permanency.

Students put a plus sign next to the picture if it is something they can do well. They help determine if each activity requires teaching, practice, and/or help from other people. They create scenarios that would require extra help for each.
