If you have a child with dyslexia, you’ll know how difficult it can be to get them to open a book, let alone take pleasure in reading. Dyslexia Ireland wants to change that.
Its Readable Project offers book clubs for children from third class to second year. Taking place over six to eight weeks, each group consists of a qualified teacher and six young people of a similar age and sharing similar interests. Together, they explore topics such as animals, Harry Potter or classics by Roald Dahl. First and second year students cover short stories and poetry aligned with the Junior Certificate curriculum.
