Perception of Dyslexia
bristol / community / news report Thursday November 05, 2009 15:26 by Goga Bochnak   image 2 images
The first of our Overcoming Dyslexia Workshops that we ran on the 3rd November gets the thumbs up from everyone who took part.

The purpose of the workshops was to explore our perceptions of dyslexia. We did this by carrying out several exercises that Antonio used within the dyslexia support programme that he developed as part of his PhD research.

One of the exercises that we did was a Self-characterisation Sketch (click here http://dyslexicbrian.com to read about this exercise) – this appeared to go down really well and got the ball rolling for a really interesting discussion about how dyslexia can affect people’s lives.

Following this, everyone in the group did an exercise that assisted them to describe their perception of dyslexia. It was so fascinating how each person described their view of dyslexia in such a uniquely individual way – lots of interesting drawing were produced too (see photo).

What’s coming next?

Moving forward, the next workshop that we are running on Monday 9th November will focus on beginning the process of developing a Super Charged Dyslexia Mindset.

We will be exploring if your current view of dyslexia to discover if it is holding you back from achieving your goals in life. And, if this is the case, we will be assisting you to re-conceptualise your dyslexia in a way that will enable you to liberate yourself from your dyslexia.

If you are interested in attending this workshop then please contact us now on 07969789893 to book your FREE place. read full story / add a comment

Come and practise your crochet on some bits of knitting. You can use doubles and crab stitch to edge or join anything especially stretchy things. Please bring a crochet hook that you like using, but not too big (between 2-5mm) and a jumper you want to change into a cardigan, if you have one. I'll have some of my scrap yarn for people who don't have any. Beginners can learn the basics without having to do that difficult first row. Improvers can ask questions, learn and share techniques, or make a new universe entirely out of crochet, depending on your level.
