Dyslexia Affecting Students Socially: A Social Analysis
Lampkin (2015) believes there are five ways that dyslexia can affect students socially.
Many kids tell jokes and play around with one another. Students with dyslexia will find it hard to “get the joke”. She suggests parents should practice this skill at home in order to help the student be able to participate in the joke telling with their friends.
Another social setback is being able to express themselves with the right words which can be curtailed by extended the amount of wait time to answer.
Body language, facial expressions, and other social cues are not easily picked up on either (Lampkin, 2015).
Text messaging and recalling information from friends are the last two social issues Lampkin lists. The best way to deal with all of these
