Description

Why do letters “dance” on my paper? Why am I slow at reading? Why does it take me a long time to write one word? Whenever I need to point left, why do I always point right? Why don’t I still know how to tell time even though I am 10 years old?
This is how the story about a little boy Petar starts. He is 10 years old and experiences difficulties with reading, writing and doing math problems. He has dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia. In his story titled “Dance of Letters”, Petar tells us about his struggles, what he does to combat them, why he sees a speech therapist and other specialists and what his childhood looks like. We learn about many other interesting things from Petar’s life because just like any other child, he is curious, playful, emotional and needs understanding and acceptance.
The goal of this story is exactly that – to understand these conditions, accept their differences, develop compassion and help those affected, help everyone, everywhere and at all times, and especially children with dyslexia, dysgraphia and dyscalculia.

Author

Nataša Šunić Vargec
During my high school days, I realised I had potential and directed it towards desires that have been burning inside of me since my childhood, so in 1995 I decided to enrol in Faculty of Defectology as it was called then, now Faculty of Education and Rehabilitation Sciences in Zagreb. In 1996 during my studies, I received the Dean’s award for my paper“Cytogenetic and Phenotypical Characteristics of Down Syndrome in Regards to Assessing Risk, Health Conditions and Multidisciplinary Monitoring of Those Affected”. After finishing my studies, majoring in speech therapy, I started my postgraduate course at the same college where I gained my graduate degree, and completed it in 2002.
For over 22 years I have been working with children who come to me due to dyslalia, dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, specific learning difficulties, pervasive developmental disorders (Autistic spectrum, Asperger, Rett syndrome), speech with MR, Down syndrome, CP, nonfluency in speech, speech rhythm and tempo disorders (stuttering and rashness), delays in language and speech (expressive and receptive segment), cognitive language delays, apraxia/dyspraxia, difficulties in auditive and visual processing, dysphonia, bilingualism and aphasia due to CVI and brain tumours (in adults).
During my work, I nave noticed a lack of material so I became an author and co-author of workbooks for children who suffer with difficulties in articulation and language, workbooks for school preparation that implement speech therapy segments in children’s emotional development. I have translated a manual for working with children with dyslexia and dysgraphia, as well as a manual for parents of children with dyspraxia.
