October is internationally recognized as Dyslexia Awareness Month, a time dedicated to increasing understanding and awareness of dyslexia. We will spend time this month learning about dyslexia and our brains, the strengths and talents that make us extraordinary. We will also spend time reviewing technology supports on the student iPads.

To show support, we encourage everyone to wear red on Thursday, October 8.

Tom's Special Talent By Kate Gaynor

"Tom isn't sure if he has any talents at all when he sees how good his friends are at writing and reading. But a school competition soon helps him to find his own very special talent!"


I love how this book shows that we all have a special talent. I like to focus on my students’ talents throughout the year. Celebrating what makes each student unique helps build their confidence and encourages them to take pride in who they are. When students recognize their own strengths, they often become more motivated to grow in other areas too. I also enjoy creating opportunities for them to share their talents with the class, which helps foster a supportive and encouraging classroom community.

Prizmo Go

Prizmo Go is an iPhone and iPad app that allows you to use your camera to capture text images. It functions as a specialized text scanner, allowing you to convert physical documents into digital, editable text. Key features include text-to-speech playback, language translation, customizable text selection, and VoiceOver support for accessibility. While the app is free, core functionalities like saving and exporting recognized text often require in-app purchases or a subscription.
