Building Your Child's Positive Self-Concept
Strategies for Students with Learning Differences
Presentor: Gabrielle Rappolt-Schlichtmann, EdD
We all want our children to be "happy", to believe in themselves, and to feel good about who they are. But how do we help our children, especially those with learning differences, achieve a positive self-concept? This webinar focused on what a positive self-concept is and strategies for how caregivers can develop this in their children.
Dyslexia: What You Need to Know

Josh Clark, Head of Landmark School
What is Dyslexia anyway? And how has it evolved over the years? Come feel inspired as Josh expands upon dyslexia's transformation from a disability into a valued difference. Learn how we have come to understand, diagnose, and support students with dyslexia (and other language-based learning disabilities). Also hear what the future might hold for people who have dyslexia.
