Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

If its true that the human minds read words as a whole not letter by letter , so what is the difference between dyslexic people to non-dyslexic ones?

Hi honey12,

Actually, that hypothesis may not necessarily be true. Check out this article: http://www.wfh.org/en/page.aspx?pid=637#Difference_A_B

I also encourage you to do some research yourself, to see what others have to say about it.

If you would like to learn more about dyslexia and what causes it, you can find a lot of information on the internet. Make sure you focus on reliable sources (like medical websites). Here is a good one to get you started: http://www.medicinenet.com/dyslexia/article.htm

I hope that helps. Please post again (in this same thread) if you have more questions.

Best,
Heather

Thank you for providing some resources for me to gain more explanations and facts about my topic. I will surely visit these websites and ask more questions if I need to. Please continue on helping students on their research. It is very much appreciated.
