“…Finally I believe that teachers must look beyond the academic areas of reading and writing to those areas that have been thought of as extraneous. Many dyslexic learners excel in the art world as sculptors, painters, dancers and as athletes. Howard Gardner, in his model of multiple intelligences has given us a way to think about ability and potential. With thorough observation, we may be able to encourage the unique gifts of dyslexic children while we provide them with strategies to deal with their reading, spelling and writing problems.”
