The Writing Glitch: Hack Dysgraphia No Pencil Required

著者: Cheri Dotterer
  • サマリー

  • The Writing Glitch is brought to you by Dotterer Educational Consulting. Our Founder and Owner, Cheri Dotterer, is the host. Build courage, compassion, and collaboration to help students thrive and grow leaders that transcend a lifetime, regardless of dyslexia, dysgraphia, and dyscalculia, using sensory-motor processing and neuroscience-based instructional interventions. No Pencil Required! We interview teachers, therapists, and parents about how they have seen a transformation in children having these disabilities and co-morbid conditions such as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). They share how they help students grow and prosper. We believe we can grow 110 million leaders together by building skills, applying knowledge, and transcending futures. Join us to hack dysgraphia. No Pencil Required. Each episode contains one intervention to help you support students with writing challenges the next day you are in your classroom. These interventions are explicit, systematic, cumulative, and multisensory. They are designed to support ALL students through targeted, daily visual-perceptual, visual-motor, and memory interventions. These interventions benefit all students and harm none. All students have access to writing regardless of their status in the classroom. The interventions were created to take up to 30 seconds to 2 minutes of your classroom time. Strategic lesson planning increases classroom engagement. All interventions can be adapted for students with physical disabilities because they support the Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) and well-being of all students. In addition, these interventions impact all subject matter classrooms. Whether you are teaching English language arts, mathematics, social studies, science, music, or art, these interventions will benefit your classroom atmosphere across ALL grade levels. You have put your blood, sweat, and tears into investing in your education and children. Don’t let a misunderstanding about this disability stop you from providing best practices. In case you don’t know me. I’m Cheri Dotterer, 2022 Dysgraphia Expert of the Year. This honor was bestowed on me by Global Health and Pharma Magazine. In 2023, they awarded my company the Best Dysgraphia Professional Development Program. It took challenges at home and on the job to wake me up to the impact dysgraphia has on all students. Struggling my entire life with communication issues, I was mistaken that only students with learning disabilities could have dysgraphia. My thoughts shifted when my gifted daughter asked for help with spelling. My son struggles with handwriting. Then, a parent asked me why her child could read and have trouble writing. Finding answers became the drive that gets me out of bed in the morning. It’s a big shock when you discover how pervasive writing difficulties are and how little people know about how to help–even OTs. I used to think I was the only OT who struggled with understanding dysgraphia. It turns out many have questions. Occupational, physical, and speech therapists are not trained to teach. Teachers are. Occupational, speech, and physical therapists are trained in neuroscience. Teachers are not. Let this podcast be your first line of defense to help your students transcend their learning disabilities. Show your school district how much you genuinely care about all of your students by sharing it with your colleagues. After each episode, I challenge you to share your key takeaway from the podcast in our FREE yet private community. Share your student wins. Get support on the challenges.

  • Finding The Right School For Your Child With Learning Disabilities
    2025/04/10
    In this inspiring episode of The Writing Glitch, Cheri Dotterer sits down with John Munro, Head of School at the GOW School—an internationally recognized boarding and day school transforming the lives of students with language-based learning disabilities. John shares the school's rich history, rooted in the work of Dr. Samuel Orton, and details the school’s signature Reconstructive Language (RL) curriculum that empowers students to master reading and writing through neuroscience-backed methods.

  • 3 Math Interventions that Make Math Stick: S3 E31
    2025/04/03
    In this episode, Cheri Dotterer shares a replay of a live webinar teaching three powerful math interventions proven to help students—from kindergarten to high school—retain and engage with math concepts more effectively. These strategies bridge the gap between cognitive science and classroom practice. Cheri breaks down the interventions into practical, hands-on activities, including the Locker Problem, the 120-Chart, and Paper Folding (Making Rectangles). She also highlights real-world case studies and the neuroscience behind these interventions, showing how as little as six minutes per week can change math outcomes.**************************************************************************Products Mentionedhttps://disabilitylabs.com/courses/cwsbp**************************************************************************TIME STAMPS0:48 – 2:15 How writing struggles connect to math struggles.2:15 – 3:01 Introduction to Jonily Zupancic and Cheri's learning journey.3:01 – 4:06 Cheri’s background, books, podcasts, and how writing is more than literacy.4:06 – 6:56 Early number sense: how toddlers naturally engage with shapes and numbers.6:56 – 7:57 Breaking the cycle of frustration and introducing today’s three interventions.7:57 – 10:07 Research data showing how these interventions improved math scores.10:07 – 11:18 First intervention: Division is Sharing — Introduction.11:18 – 17:25 The Locker Problem — A math patterning activity to teach division and counting.17:25 – 20:06 Second intervention: Subtraction is Distance — Using the 120-Chart to build number sense.20:06 – 25:10 Third intervention: Multiplication is Rectangles — Teaching multiplication and fractions using paper folding.25:10 – 26:57 AHA moments and reflection from webinar participants.26:57 – 27:46 Why these interventions work and why you should try them.27:46 – 30:12 Course bundle details and how to apply these interventions K-12.30:12 – 33:21 Practicum, bonus offers, and course bundle available for listeners.****************************************************************************BOOKSHandwriting Brain Body DISconnect Digital Version: https://disabilitylabs.com/courses/hwbbd On Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Handwriting-Br...*****************************************************************************SUBSCRIBE and LISTEN to the Audio version of the podcast here on YouTube or your favorite podcast app.APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-writing-glitch/id1641728130?uo=4SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/5rU9kLxjkqJE5GbyCycrHEAMAZON MUSIC/AUDIBLE: https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/894b3ab2-3b1c-4a97-af60-b1f2589d271fYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWritingGlitchPodcast*****************************************************************************FREE WEBINARSpecial Offer coming in March.
