Parents of Children with Learning Disabilities

I have witnessed first hand how difficult it can be for parents when their child is struggling with learning.  I read an article titled, "The Natural Emotional Cycle for Parents with Learning Disabilities," With conferences approaching it is important as teachers to remember the struggles that parents may have with dealing with their son or daughters learning difficulties.  link

While finding this link, I found information on how October is National Dyslexia Month.  It is important as educators to be aware of the many different struggles of our learners.

  1. This is a great article. It's always great to be reminded of positions parents might be in when they come into the classroom. I will be getting a new student soon who was just put on an IEP so this will be helpful as I meet this family.
