Students with dyslexia often face more than decoding challenges—they juggle multiple cognitive demands that can quickly overload working memory. In this engaging and practical session, Amie Davenport, MEd, helps parents and educators unpack how working memory influences reading, writing, and overall classroom performance for students with dyslexia. Participants will explore evidence-based strategies to reduce cognitive load, support retention, and strengthen learning efficiency. Walk away with effective tools and techniques you can immediately use to make learning more accessible and sustainable—both at home and in the classroom.
