his session focuses on understanding and supporting students with dyslexia, particularly English learners (ELs), by exploring identification, assessment techniques, and instructional practices. Participants learn about the impact of dyslexia on reading development, the differences between monolingual and EL students, and how structured literacy approaches, such as phonemic awareness, phonics, and fluency, can be embedded into daily instruction. Emphasis is placed on cross-linguistic transfer and asset-based strategies to support literacy. Additionally, the session addresses the social-emotional challenges of dyslexia, including stress and anxiety, and how these impact behavior and learning. Practical strategies for reducing stress, fostering confidence, and using culturally responsive practices are shared, helping educators create supportive, patient environments for long-term success in students with dyslexia.
