Apps for Students with Dyslexia

Another great link from Call Scotland

Check out the other app wheels from this link for ASD and complex communication needs.


Starter Apps to scaffold learning and aid presentation skills that I like include:

Explain Everything: App to use voice, picture and words to explain a classroom activity
Write to Read: learn to read by writing
Comic Life: versatile presentation tool
Book Creator: makes books with pictures, words and sound
Pages: word processor – can save for word or pdf
Collins - Big Cat books to read stories to you, to read by yourself, to create stories yourself
Phonics Hairy Letters and Pocket Phonics
Evernote: Teachers and student may like to make notes and record homework with this app

For struggling readers – see free resources at https://load2learn.org.uk  and http://www.seeingear.org/ for free access to library books for those with specific learning difficulties

  1. May I simply say what a comfort to uncover somebody who genuinely understands what they are discussing over the internet. You definitely realize how to bring a problem to light and make it important. More people ought to look at this and understand this side of the story. I was surprised you're not more popular given that you most certainly possess the gift.
