Dyslexia is a learning disorder that affects the way a person reads, writes, and spells. It is characterized by difficulty with phonological processing, which is the ability to identify and manipulate the sounds in words. Dyslexia can also affect other areas of learning, such as math and comprehension.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach to checking for dyslexia. However, there are a number of screening tools that can be used to identify children who may be at risk for the disorder. These tools typically assess a child’s phonological processing skills, as well as their reading and writing abilities.
