My known dyslexic students tend to still have reversal troubles in math
(as do some of my other students with other neurological issues like
previous drug use).  In reading & writing it tends to get picked up by
their knowledge of context.

Colleagues--

I am working to make a synthesis of neuroscience theories and findings
about dyslexia and I would like to use anyone who is interested as
co-learners for a little while.  I don't know how little a while, it
might just be for a couple of days.

I am not currently in the classroom and I know that some of you are.

So...do any of you out there have students who make reversals?  if so,
could you give me any current examples?

I am looking over the work of about 5 neuroscientists.

I will share with the list any conclusions of my own, of course.

Thanks.

Andrea
