1. Ask questions.
You likely have questions about what having dyslexia means for your child. Reach out to the people who have answers. That includes your child’s teacher and health care provider.
2. Talk with your child.
It can be a relief to kids to know there’s a reason for their challenges and things that can help. Help your child understand and talk openly about it at home. Let your child know that dyslexia is nothing to be ashamed about, and that it doesn’t mean your child isn’t smart.
3. Know what comes next at school.
If your child was evaluated by the school, the school will develop a plan called an IEP to provide support for your child. Learn how that process works, and what your role is.
If your child was evaluated privately and you want a free school evaluation, find out how to request one. And learn how to work with the school to use results from a private evaluation.
