Hi Everyone,
We have been very lucky to obtain the rights to publicly screen a documentary called 'The Big Picture: Rethinking Dyslexia'. This 52 minute documentary examines what it is to be dyslexic, amongst a series of short interviews with successful adults with dyslexia and teens in the process of developing strategies to make learning achievable.
As the flyer points out (attached) up to 1 in 5 children have some form of Dyslexia. Up until 2008 the Ministry of Education in New Zealand refused to accept that Dyslexia existed and it is still something we as teachers know very little about. If your child struggles with reading and writing and you don't know why, then this doco is a must see.
We are having two screenings on Tuesday 3rd December; 4pm and 7pm. Entry is free, but could you please phone the office
(3028500) to book your seat so we know how many people are coming. Feel free to bring your children.
See you there,
Chris
