All About Reading & All About Spelling are fantastic curricula designed specifically for kids with dyslexia. In these curricula, you’ll find step-by-step explicit phonics instruction with PLENTY of notes to help you teach your learner(s).
These are both known as homeschool curriculums, but I know classroom teachers who have also used these with great success. Click on the images below to find their website.
Homeschooling with Dyslexia – Marianne Sunderland has homeschooled seven kids with dyslexia over the last twenty-five years. Yes, you read that right~she has SEVEN kids with dyslexia! She is a certified Orton-Gillingham tutor with plenty of resources on her blog for teaching children with dyslexia. 
Want some good reads to learn more? Here are some books about dyslexia!
8 Books about Teaching Kids with Learning Differences – Books about dyslexia are definitely covered in this blog post! My top three favorite books so far have been:
- Overcoming Dyslexia by Sally Shaywitz – This book is known as the “Dyslexia Bible.” It is a little on the technical side, but it is DEFINITELY worth the read! I’ve come back to it time and time again.
- Conquering Dyslexia by Jan Hasbrouck – An easy read with large print and helpful chapters broken down in bite-size pieces.
- Helping Your Child with Language-Based Learning Disabilities by Daniel Franklin – I love the practical advice and help Franklin gives parents in helping their own kids. This book was SUPER HELPFUL in helping me with my oldest son who has a language-based learning difference.
If you already know your child or learner has dyslexia, here are some go-to resources I have on the blog.
One thing we know about learners with dyslexia is that they need Structured Literacy. What is that? I’m so glad you asked because we have a series all about it. Get started by learning about The Elements of Structured Literacy.
If you’re homeschooling, be sure to check out my post, Best Curricula for Struggling Learners. This covers homeschool curricula for reading, spelling, math, and more!
I’ve got TONS of resources on the blog for struggling readers and struggling spellers, so be sure to check them out! Much of it applies to teaching kids with dyslexia.

Thx so much. I am currently dealing with this. I am really looking forward to this series.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this! Some of the students I tutor have learning differences, and I need to understand dyslexia better. Your reading & spelling resources help a lot, but I still don’t understand what dyslexia is like for a child who has it. Looking forward to learning more!
Glad to hear they help!
Becky Spence and the measured mom are two educators that I find very knowledgeable, up to date, clear and professional. I am hoping to join in on this series about Dyslexia. 😊👍🌸 Thank you for all the research and dissemination of information regarding reading and learning that you offer parents and teachers. I can see this means a lot to you. Be well. Warm regards and Shalom from Israel. Miriam Cramer
Aw, you are very welcome! I hope this series will be very helpful for many who are searching for resources!
Thank you! This is so timely, as our second grade boy was diagnosed with a reading and processing disorder this year. Looking back, it’s a bit frustrating that we weren’t able to identify it earlier, but I’m pretty sure his coping strategies are really good. I purchased a couple of the books you recommended, and am looking forward to following along on your blog.
I hope you enjoy them and find them helpful!
