Hello Hive community, today I want to talk about Dyslexia, a very interesting topic and a disorder that affects many children.

Dyslexia is a learning disorder and those who suffer from it cannot understand words and numbers well, making their studies difficult.

People with this disorder do not have intellectual disability and have a normal IQ, they simply find it difficult to learn.

This condition is not considered a disease and usually occurs in members of the same family, so heredity can be considered as a factor to take into account.

According to the studies carried out so far, it has been discovered that this condition occurs when the brain processes information in a different way.

When a dyslexic patient reads, brain does not work correctly and areas of his brain are activated that are not those that should normally be in charge of reading.

Children begin reading by first recognizing letter sounds, then recognizing words until it becomes an automatic process and they can begin to comprehend text quickly.

Children with dyslexia have difficulties creating a memory of sounds and automatically recognizing words, and in this way reading becomes a very slow and sometimes frustrating process for the child and his family.

Dyslexia is commonly thought to be when the order of letters is reversed; but it is more than that, they also find it difficult to associate sounds with graphemes and the automatic comprehension of words.

Among the main difficulties that the child may present are: the difficulty of speaking correctly and pronouncing long words, learning the sounds of the letters and their names, pronouncing the sounds of simple words separately, among others.

This condition is usually diagnosed at an early age by presenting the difficulties already described, although it can sometimes be discovered in adolescents when they are expected to understand more complex texts.

The diagnosis must be made by a specialist, be it a psychologist, a pediatrician or some other trained professional.

Patients with dyslexia need a lot of support from their family and teachers, their education must be focused according to their specific needs. Their development and learning must be guided by a professional, be it a psychopedagogical educator or a speech therapist.

At a very early age, children with this learning difficulty can sometimes feel sad or frustrated, but with good support and instruction from parents and guardians, focused on enhancing the child's abilities, they can overcome this condition.

I hope I have aroused your interest in this difficulty that many children in the world have and need to be understood and oriented in a special way.

Thanks for reading me!

De qué se trata la Dislexia?

Hola comunidad de Hive hoy quiero hablarles de la Dislexia un tema muy interesante y un trastorno que afecta a muchos niños.

La dislexia es un trastorno del aprendizaje y quien la padece no logra comprender bien las palabras y los números, dificultando sus estudios.

Las personas con este trastorno no presentan discapacidad intelectual y presentan un coeficiente intelectual normal, simplemente se les dificulta aprender.

Esta condición no se considera una enfermedad y suele presentarse en miembros de una misma familia por lo que la herencia puede considerarse como un factor a tener en cuenta.

Según los estudios realizados hasta el momento se ha descubierto que esta condición ocurre cuando el cerebro procesa la informacion de manera distinta.

Cuando un paciente disléxico lee su cerebro no funciona correctamente y se activan zonas de su cerebro que no son las que normalmente deberían estar encargadas de la lectura.

Los niños comienzan a leer primeramente reconociendo sonidos formados por letras , luego reconociendo palabras hasta que se vuelve un proceso automático y pueden comenzar a comprender los textos rápidamente.

Los niños con dislexia tienen dificultades al crear una memoria de sonidos y reconocer palabras automáticamente y de esta forma la lectura se vuelve un proceso muy lento y en ocasiones frustrante para el niño y sus familiares.

Comúnmente se piensa que la dislexia es cuando se invierte el orden de las letras ; pero es mas que eso tambien se les dificulta asociar sonidos a los grafemas y la comprensión automática de palabras.

Dentro de las principales dificultades que puede presentar el niño se encuentran: la dificultad de hablar correctamente y pronunciar palabras largas ,aprender los sonidos de las letras y sus nombres, pronunciar separados los sonidos de palabras simples, entre otras.

Esta condición se suele diagnosticar en edades tempranas al presentar las dificultades ya descritas aunque en ocasiones se puede descubrir en adolescentes cuando se espera que comprendan textos mas complejos.

El diagnóstico debe realizarlo un especialista ya sea un psicólogo , un pediatra o algun profesional capacitado.

Los pacientes con dislexia necesitan mucho apoyo por parte de su familia y profesores, su educación debe ser enfocada de acuerdo a su necesidad específica. Su desarrollo y aprendizaje deben ir orientados por un profesional ya sea un educador psicopedagógico o un logopeda.

A edades muy tempranas los niños con esta dificultad del aprendizaje pueden en ocasiones sentirse tristes o frustrados, pero con un buen apoyo e instruccion de padres y tutores, enfocados en potenciar las habilidades del niño, pueden lograr superar esta condición.

Espero haber despertado su interés sobre esta dificultad que tienen muchos niños en el mundo y necesitan ser comprendidos y orientados de una forma especial.

Gracias por leerme!

Thanks so much for this wonderful article. I think parents must be vigilant in finding out early whether their child has this sickness or not so as to start treating it in the early stages.
