Parents, caregivers and educators of children with dyslexia and/or ADHD
Eligible courses are approved for the Caregivers Training Grant (CTG).
Learners with learning difficulties often have one or more comorbidities. Attention-related challenges are one of the more commonly seen symptoms among children with dyslexia. Attention is primary to all learning and communication. In this workshop, we hope to be able to provide a broader understanding of attentional challenges, impulse control and other executive function difficulties, alongside ADHD.
The workshop will be delivered online via live-stream on Zoom. While learning online, participants can continue to participate actively in classroom activities through live video and chat functions in zoom.
*Course will be postponed if the minimum number of participants is not met. Participants will be informed if course is postponed.
Secure your place and start supporting the children in your care.
This workshop explores why some children struggle with reading and how these challenges can impact their motivation and attitudes toward reading. Parents will learn how to foster reading habits through shared reading experiences and by creating a reading-friendly environment at home. The session introduces Self-Determination Theory (SDT) as a framework for supporting motivation by meeting children’s needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Parents will also be introduced to interactive read-aloud strategies such as PEER, CROWD, Bloom’s Taxonomy, and Thinking Hats that promote engagement and build vocabulary through meaningful conversation. Participants will engage in hands-on practice and leave with practical tools to establish reading routines and a print-rich home environment that nurtures lifelong literacy.
This workshop will empower you with practical and relevant strategies and approaches to build key executive function skills to help your children become more effective in managing themselves.
