Dyslexia Guidelines

Q16:  Does my school district need to wait for the statewide dyslexia guidelines to be issued before they implement dyslexia specific trainings and appropriate Structured Literacy interventions?

Q20:  I understand that the California Department of Education has released dyslexia guidelines. Do you have a summary of these guidelines that I can share with my school district?

I understand phonics instruction is critical for students with dyslexia to learn to read and spell.  How do I know if a school is teaching phonics effectively?
