I sat in a meeting today trying to figure out how to serve a child
that is obviously dyslexic. I have no difficulty identifying his
problems to be dyslexia due to numerous college classes and Orton
Training. I do realize I can't identify him and recommended to a
parent that she seek professional identification. The team that I
was a member of said that Dyslexia is NOT a medical condition.
Please help settle this dispute. Is dyslexia a medical condition?
If so, please forward any literature or sites that simply state this
fact. If I am wrong, then I must go back to and educate myself.
HELP STRAIGHTEN THIS DISCUSSION!
