DISLEXIA E ESCOLA: identificação precoce

Abstract

There is a kind of ghost that haunts the Brazilian classrooms. He goes by the -ame of dyslexia and is co-responsible for the difficulties of millions of children, especially in the early grades. It is almost a consensus that this disorder is an obstacle preventing the full development of reading and writing. Subject matter experts disagree with this analysis and say that it has been used to justify the school failure and dropout, and with it, many have taken the focus of the low quality of education, leaving students alone responsible for the shortcomings of the school. Most students who write letters reversed in literacy or make mistakes in spelling do so because these are normal occurrences in the acquisition of written language. And the aim of this article is to demystify concepts underlying dyslexia in the minds of many professionals who work in schools with early identification and intervention in the school setting. The work reveals that many professionals are mistaken when it comes to dyslexia in the classroom treating it wrongly.
