Children with Dyslexia, ADHD, apraxia, and auditory processing disorder often have impaired executive function. Executive function is made up of working memory, mental flexibility, and emotional control. When it comes to spelling, this impairment of working memory is the most challenging. Theses children struggle to memorize data, whether it is a list of spelling words or what time soccer practice is - they struggle.

Somehow you must bring this data alive. When it comes to spelling words, you are going to add color and interactivity. Try this - it works. This strategy will also improve your child's phonemic awareness and decoding ability as will as fluidity and reading comprehension.

Children with ADHD often display an ongoing pattern of inattention and/or hyperactivity-impulsivity that interferes with functioning or development. This pattern of inattention impairs their ability to learn to read. By countering this inattentive pattern with a punishment and reward system, parents will be able to better instruct their child and have a child that will be better able to achieve academic and social success as well as read at grade level.

Dyslexia and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder are neurodevelopmental disorders that can occur together. Estimates of the degree of comorbidity range from 12–40%, and people with ADHD are six times more likely than others to have a learning disorder like dyslexia. For the purposes of this video, we can say that children that are dyslexic often struggle with excessive movement and frequently going off task. So, even thought a dyslexic child may nat be diagnosed as ADHD - hyperactivity may still be present and need to be dealt with in a reading instruction setting.
