A poem written by a pupil with dyslexia is currently going viral for its eye-opening double meaning.
Today in Y6 we looked at poems that could be read forwards & backwards. I was stunned by this one written by one of my 10 year olds. Please share - I would love her work to be appreciated further afield. I wonder if it could even find a publisher? pic.twitter.com/tmEQpiRrhq— Jane Broadis (@Jb5Jane) February 27, 2019
I am dyslexic, I learn differently, I find some of the things my brain comes up with hilarious. This young students poem is wonderful. Well done. Dyslexia doesn’t stop you doing anything. You just have to find a way around the obsticle. Side step it.— Jen (@jennywhitwot) February 27, 2019

As the mother of a dyslexic son, this speaks volumes to me. Just beautiful x— Tracy B (@mrsb2205) February 27, 2019
That's brilliant. You sound like a great teacher too. The encouragement and confidence you give her now, she will remember for the rest of her life.— Toby larone (@tobylarone1) February 27, 2019
What great work! Well done. When you are a famous author, you can look back on this day. (and well done Ms Broadis for taking the time to share)— Natasha Haberdasher (@MsNatashaPage) February 27, 2019
