Dyslexia is a language based learning disability known for creating problems in reading but writing skills are also impacted. Students not only have problems with spelling but also with spacing, illegible handwriting and poor sentence formation.

Dysgraphia, while it shares some similarities with dyslexia, is a separate learning disability which causes problems putting thoughts on paper.

Students with dyslexia not only have a difficult time reading but may have a hard time organizing information as well as problems with conventions and sentence structure, creating writing assignments that look as if the student did not put any effort into the assignment. Teachers can help by working with students to create a plan of action.
