Supporting Students With ADHD and Dyslexia

In this webinar, experts from the Child Mind Institute and the Shefa School help parents understand how ADHD and dyslexia affect learning, behavior, and daily school experiences. We explore practical strategies for building executive functioning skills, strengthening reading and writing development, and creating supportive routines at home.

Parents also learn about the common co-occurring conditions that can accompany ADHD and dyslexia — such as anxiety, executive functioning challenges, and inconsistencies in performance — and how these can influence a child’s school experience. We discuss how schools provide accommodations, how to collaborate effectively with teachers, and how to foster confidence and independence in students with diverse learning needs.
