THE BRAIN-READY READERS SEMINAR


Join Bridget Mosley and Peggy Wilber for a presentation on "Healing the Brain Glitches that Make Reading Hard" on Tuesday, September 29th from 7:00 to 8:00 pm at New Life Church.
"Brain glitches" are like potholes--they slow down messages traveling along brain pathways. Everyone has "brain glitches"--even adults. Your child's brain glitches may make it difficult for him to learn to read and read well enough to compete in school. They really slow down reading and that slows down homework and schoolwork. But, your child can develop smooth, super highways that lead to stronger and faster thinking so reading is easy. Brain research shows that a child can grow brain skills and reading skills to automaticity--the speed of instant, effortless recall. Avid readers are automatic readers.

Your child isn't stupid, lazy, or bored. No way! In fact, brain glitches cause his brain to work too hard--for far too little reward. Sadly, the smarter your kid is, the faster he gives up. He thinks he can't catch-up. But he can. Even a child who struggles with dyslexia or reading disabilities has a wonderful brain that can grow these critical skills.

We'll cover your questions as well as:
* Key, basic principles on how our brains learn best.
* How to tell whether your child is on the road to becoming an avid reader, a poor reader, or is at the "fork in the road."
* What brain training is, and why it can be so helpful to kids.

Sign up at here under Support Group and HCSG Events. Deadline is: Friday, Sept 25th.
