Building Effective Classrooms for Students With Dyslexia

An estimated 1 in 5 students has dyslexia or some other language-based disorder. These videos highlight different ways educators can target help for students struggling to read.

Coverage of students with learning differences and issues of race, opportunity, and equity is supported in part by a grant from the Oak Foundation, at www.oakfnd.org. Education Week retains sole editorial control over the content of this coverage.
