Parent Support Groups:

Network Victoria (DPNV)
Parent support groups around Victoria
have joined together to establish a state wide group -
Dyslexia Parent Network Victoria (DPNV).
The groups represented are from the
following areas - Bendigo, Sunbury, Macedon Ranges, and
Geelong, Box Hill, Morrabbin, Langwarrin, Mornington and
the Western suburbs. New groups are welcome to join at any
time.
DPNV aims to

Bring parent groups around Victoria together as one
voice for dyslexia.

Over time I will
add to these groups to include others throughout Australia:

Resources to support Adults and Children who are Dyslexic
I will gradually build a range of resources to support
people who are dyslexic. The Coloured Reading Rulers have
been extremely effective for dyslexics who find that when
reading; the print is blurry, words moves about the page or
they frequently lose their place. Wooden Alphabet Letters
are so versatile and I consider a must for teaching
children or adults who reverse letters, have difficulty
sequencing the alphabet or have experienced real difficulty
learning to spell. How to Identify, Support and Teach
Children with Special Needs in the Mainstream Classroom is
a manual for anyone involved with children with special
needs. However it contains a lot of information that would
help you identify and support children and adults who are
dyslexic.
