RECENT UPDATES:
30/09/2025: Addition of dyslexic friendly paper based worksheets and e-workbooks for PowerPoint and Google Classroom.

Some resources have been created using the OpenDyslexic font. The Letters have heavy weighted bottoms to indicate direction helping students to work out which part of the letter is up/ down which helps in recognizing the correct letter. Consistently weighted bottoms can also help reinforce the line of text. The unique shapes of each letter can help prevent confusion through flipping and swapping. Harsh white backgrounds have been replaced with grey tones to make for a more enjoyable experience.
