Free High-Frequency Flash Cards for learners with Dyslexia
What is Dyslexia
Dyslexia is a neurological condition impacting reading, writing, and spelling, unrelated to intelligence. It involves difficulties in recognizing and processing spoken language sounds. Despite challenges in reading, dyslexic individuals often excel in problem-solving and creativity. Early identification and targeted interventions are crucial for developing strong literacy skills.
Challenges with High-Frequency Words:
Dyslexic learners face difficulties with high-frequency words due to phonological processing challenges. These include issues with recognizing sounds, visual processing, working memory constraints, and word retrieval challenges. Anxiety and confidence issues can further hinder the learning process
