Re: [MOSAIC] dyslexia

[Laura]

I'm curious which state?  We have special provisions for testing for 
dyslexia in Texas.  Also, it can definitely be a case of 504 which is a 
mandated federal law about students with disabilities that are not labeled 
special ed.  The 504 law covers all states.

I have a student who probably has dyslexia.  According to our school psych, 
my state does not recognize dyslexia as a learning disability, so this 
student will not get any help from special ed.  She really needs help with 
reading.

I remember years ago hearing that see-through plastic sheets in different 
colors can help students with dyslexia read.  Do you know anything about 
this?

If this is really true, where can I buy some of those plastic sheets for 
her to try out?
Thanks!
Jan
