Year 7's presentation to Secondary Assembly on dyslexia and the effects it has on people and their learning

Year 7S did an amazing job today presenting their research about dyslexia, which they have been working on in Form time. They accepted the challenge, which was to inform DCIS of what dyslexia is and the effects it has on people and their learning.

The class split into groups and created a poster, a video, a Powerpoint presentation and even a website! We also received a very special email from Ella (now living in Sweden) who last year won our DCIS Dyslexia Awareness Week competition for her video.

The form worked extremely hard on this and I am very proud of them!
