What Is the Connection between Dyslexia and Dyspraxia?

Dyslexia is simply a kind of dyslexia caused by the brain's comprehensive processing of visual and auditory information that cannot be coordinated. Special attention should be paid to distinguish it from the type of dyslexia caused by mental retardation. On the contrary, many patients are highly intelligent, even talented people. Like Da Vinci, Edison, Einstein, and Kennedy, they were regarded as "stupid kids" with poor grades in their childhood. Finally, scientists found that they were all typical examples of dyslexia. Its performance characteristics are mainly reflected in literacy reading. The reasons are also complex and multifaceted, but scientific correction can be made during childhood.

Dyslexia

Dyslexia is simply a comprehensive brain treatment

Most people are fortunate to learn to read and write, but 20% still have problems reading and writing. If you are the 20% of people, you will understand what it feels like: often you need to guess the meaning of many words and articles; you will reverse or reverse the words, it is easy to skip or miss words; you must Point your finger at each word to read; when you write, you will simplify or

Cause

It is extremely important to cultivate good reading ability, and the cultivation of reading ability should start from a young age. Childhood is the key period for the development of reading ability. Therefore, early reading education is an important part of pre-school education that cannot be ignored. Compared with children in developed countries, there is still a large gap between children's reading ability and reading volume in China. Some experts at the China-Western Children's Reading Education Exchange and Seminar pointed out that Chinese children begin to enter the autonomous reading stage at the age of 8 (compared to 4 years in the West). Even in Beijing, the incidence of children with dyslexia is as high as 6% -8%. So dyslexia should be treated early.

For more severe dyslexia, such as children's neurophysiological defects, special teachers and psychologists need to use special methods to correct them, such as the multi-sensory channel method, which emphasizes the use of students' multiple sensory channels, such as sight and hearing , Movement, touch, etc .; neural tissue correction method, children with dyslexia usually use visual depiction exercises and eye-hand coordination exercises to promote the development of the superior ability of the cerebral hemisphere; for children with emotional disorders, you need to go through a psychological counselor Rectify their psychological problems.

The following focuses on the correction of dyslexia related to intellectual factors and education. Teachers can correct children's dyslexia through targeted extended vocabulary training, reading skills training, and the cultivation of good reading habits.

* Correction of poor vocabulary

First, select reading materials that are suitable for students, and pay attention to the exercises that require understanding of the meaning of the article. In order to encourage children to read quickly, basic readings should be used to expand children's vocabulary, and the materials used in this treatment must be made easy for children. You can also perform fast word recognition training under meaningless background conditions, such as quick sign method.

* Correction of reading habits

Everyone's reading habits will be different. Some people read it word by word from beginning to end, and after reading it, they were at a loss; others were able to skim and quickly grasp the subject; while others wrote notes while reading. Different reading habits often lead to differences in reading efficiency. This can be corrected in two ways.

First, teachers should cultivate students' habit of making marks or comments when reading, such as underlining important words; making comments where they do not understand. In this way, it can help students to concentrate and promote thinking while reading.

Second, teachers should cultivate the habit of students skimming quickly. One problem when people read is to read different materials in the same way.

The traditional method of "biting words" has not adapted to the requirements of the information age. Through training, children's self-regulation ability of reading speed should be developed so that they can choose the reading speed according to the type of material and the purpose of reading. .

In China, the research on dyslexia is still in its infancy. In order to help children with dyslexia learn to read more effectively, more extensive and in-depth research and practice are needed.
