DYSLEXIA, DYSCALCULIA & DYSGRAPHIA: AN INTEGRATED APPROACH (KATHY JOHNSON SELF-STUDY)

Course overview

Proven strategies for... ¿Increasing sequencing and memory ¿Reading ability including an instant improvement ¿Handwriting ¿Increasing words written ¿Math skills ¿Improving processing speed ¿Reducing anxiety, including test anxiety ¿Stopping reversals After eight years of research and working with struggling students, Kathy Johnson has witnessed these students becoming successful after just months of an integrated approach to therapy. Although there is no silver bullet there are paths to success! If more of the same doesn¿t work, it is time to find the path that does work. In this ground-breaking seminar, professionals from many different perspectives come together to learn how their interventions integrate to remediate some of the more complicated dysfunctions seen in education today. The Pyramid of Potential approach starts the remediation with building blocks of mind and body health from nutrition and psychology, followed by brain development and sensory-motor development from occupational, physical, and vision therapy, which leads into cognitive skills training (memory, logic, processing speed, etc.) from educational therapy. This program combines lecture and notes with discussion and hands on exercises to facilitate every learning style. Participants will experience exercises and therapies that are discussed and are provided with extensive notes and resources for further exploration.
