Dyslexia

Miguel has trouble taking notes so he relies on his memory to get by. In school he tapes his classes. Later, he reviews the tapes. He memorizes every thing on them. On tests he writes what he remem bers from the tapes.

For Miguel, memorizing often works. But not always. Once he got sick and missed school for two weeks. He was too embarrassed to ask a friend to tape his classes. He couldn't catch up later. He ended up with poor grades for that term.
