Update: 2025-10-17
Description
In this Dyslexia Awareness Month bonus episode of Literacy in Color, I’m joined by Jean Peake, Lower School Literacy Specialist and Orton-Gillingham Practitioner. Jean shares about the importance of early screening, diagnostic assessments, and data-driven interventions – especially for those with dyslexia. Jean’s insights are both practical and heart-centered, reminding us that literacy work is about more than data. It’s about protecting the hearts of the students we serve.
Key Takeaways:
- Why universal screening for all students is essential
- What to look for when analyzing assessment data beyond “on grade level” labels
- Practical, high-impact classroom strategies that support dyslexic learners — and truly benefit all students
- How to partner with parents in ways that are empathetic, clear, and empowering
