the right kind of teaching. They might learn new ways for remembering sounds. For

example, "p "and "b" are called brother sounds because they're

both "lip poppers." You have to press your lips together to make the sound.

B- Kids with dyslexia also might use flashcards or tape classroom lessons and homework assignments instead of taking notes about them.

They may need parents and tutors to help them stay caught up.

so kids with dyslexia have enough time to finish

and show their teacher how much they have learned.

programs that "read" books out loud from

the computer or even download recorded

books to an iPod!
