Abstract

Dyslexia is largely viewed as the particular form of the Specific Learning Difficulty (SLD) (Riddick, 1999). Extensive research has been carried out with respect to the Dyslexia among children and the primary students in the past years that include different perspectives of this disorder like causes, diagnosis and nature of this disorder (Reinsel, 2001). Little is known about the phenomenon of the lived experiences of the primary schools students suffering with dyslexia beyond their challenges with reading and spelling. In addition, the relationship between significant learning events and the meaning primary student's with dyslexia attribute to them is also unknown. Dyslexia is the disorder that is associated with the disability of writing, reading, listening and speaking. It is inability of the children in the selection of correct words while speaking. The disorder is particularly common among the boys. The study will analyse students of the primary schools suffering from Dyslexia that affect their school performance in various manner. A plethora of researchers have investigated the phenomenon of students who have normal intelligence and adequate listening comprehension but who still fail to learn to read and write proficiently. One reason for this failure is that some of these students cannot automatically recognize words, which is characteristic of a specific reading disability termed dyslexia. Additional characteristics of dyslexia are extreme difficulty decoding unfamiliar words, frequent and atypical spelling errors, and extremely slow, dysfluent reading.
