It’s been awhile…

…but I’m back!!! Life and all other things have taken me from really maintaining this space, but I’ve committed myself for the pending new year to come back and share the incredible resources that come along my way. This was always my intention in this blog and now, more than ever, we need each other and resources to support our students. I'm so grateful you're here and hope you continue to follow along as we bring Where It's AT back to life! 

If you’re also on Bluesky and Instagram, please feel free to give me a follow over there too.

October is Dyslexia Awareness Month

 

Dyslexia Awareness Month It's fall. The weather's getting cooler, the days are getting shorter, and if we look up, many of the leaves are turning red - and so is the global dyslexia community. Go Red for Dyslexia is a worldwide campaign support by Succeed with Dyslexia that takes place during the Dyslexia Awareness Month in October. It aims to change the narrative for people with dyslexia and low literacy. It's focused on raising awareness of dyslexia and working to end the stigma, and showing the world all the amazing things that individuals with dyslexia can do. 2022 is Go Red's year of inclusivity; that means focusing on celebrating and helping the people who are building the foundations for a better, more accessible tomorrow in the workplace, at school and in our communities and societies. Go Red looks like...Asking your local buildings and landmarks to light up red for dyslexia awareness, applauding even more incredible achievements of people with dyslexia, celebrating dyslexic creativity, talking about dyslexia and inclusivity in your schools, workplaces and social groups, turning your world red - from clothes to corporate logos. And sharing your stories, experiences and hopes for the future using #GoRedForDyslexia on your social media. Why do we go red? We're all familiar with the color red: when we're learning in class and looking back at our work, we associate red with out mistakes, corrections and crossings out. It's a color that's been used to draw attention to a sense of failure, and Go Red have decided it's time for a paradigm shift. With this campaign, Succeed with Dyslexia want to reclaim the color red and this part of dyslexic history. Red can become something empowering for the global dyslexic community, a color that unites us as we create change for the better - something that represents awareness, diversity, innovation, connection and our strengths.
Statistics vary on the subject, but it's thought that around one in ten people everywhere have dyslexia. But as far as public perceptions and knowledge go, many people are still in the dark about it, and what it means. People everywhere are treated differently because they have dyslexia, and some people hold the vastly incorrect assumption that having dyslexia means you're not smart or capable of incredible things. Some people who have dyslexia aren't even aware of it, because they've never had guidance on what to look for, what help and support is out there, and how small changes like assistive technology can open up a whole new world of living and learning. GO Red for Dyslexia wants to change these narratives for the better. Succeed with Dyslexia would love to have you on board for this year's Go Red, so make sure that you're making plans and keeping up with the very latest Go Red action at @succeedwithdyslexia on Instragram and TikTok. You can also visit us online or get in touch via go-red@succeedwithdyslexia.org Go Red is part of the Succeed with Dyslexia movement to celebrate dyslexia at a global level. Succeed with Dyslexia collaborate on a number of campaigns with individuals and organizations to raise awareness of dyslexia and the power of lteracy. a

All Means All Inclusive Education Podcast: Taking Risks and Being Vulnerable

Many educators, students, and families are heading back to school this month. In this All Means All Inclusive Education podcast episode, you'll hear one of their favorite quotes (or speeches) from Teddy Roosevelt, "The Man in the Arena." Each new day marks a new opportunity to share your authentic, vulnerable self with others as parents, students, educators or educational leaders. 

As you listen, consider what risks you will take for your students (or yourself) this year. How will you be a champion for others?
