Being a dyslexic learner means…  I learn ‘differently’  Trying extra hard every single day is tiring  Learning is a challenge & meeting the challenge can be great!

The good things dyslexia gives me “I come up with lots of new ideas!” “I’m good at solving problems – an excellent trouble shooter” “I love music, art and drama” “I’m good at explaining my ideas in Science” “I love finding out about new things”.
