Students who are struggling with reading fluency and comprehension or who have other disabilities can benefit from free or low-cost literacy supports.

We will approach literacy supports through the Universal Design for Learning concept for all learning styles. We will discuss text-to-speech software, Microsoft built-in features, and mobile solutions, as well as other free resources.
