This project was implemented by two dyslexia
specialists working with SFCE and partnered with the church school children’s fund during the current scholastic year. The contents of a dyslexia toolbox aim to facilitate learning, improve reading and writing skills, and provide coping mechanisms for the challenges associated with dyslexia. It is a collection of specific resources, strategies, and tools designed to help individuals with reading and writing difficulties. It provides practical, hands-on materials and methods that can be used by educators, parents, and students themselves to address the challenges associated with dyslexia. The beneficiaries of this project were students in grades 7 and 8. This project has helped raise awareness and understanding of the toolbox approach in the mainstream curriculum of schools participating in the Dyslexia-Friendly Initiative. During this scholastic year, one secondary school which embarked on the dyslexia friendly initiative had the opportunity to take part in this project. Although this venture is in its initial stages the educators of the said school showed interest to have the dyslexia toolbox integrated in mainstream curriculum.
