A hint for anyone with dyslexic kids doing homework

Because dyslexia can affect working / short term memory it is more productive to have regular breaks every 30 to 40 minutes when doing home work. So rather than letting your child work for two solid hours which will overtax their working memory. Encourage them to do two or three or even four shorter sessions over two hours with regular 5 to 10 minute breaks. The breaks also give them a chance to rechrarge their concentration batteries.
