4th Grade Dyslexic/ADHD Curriculum Bundle
Designed for fourth graders who have signs of, or have been diagnosed with, dyslexia or ADHD. These journals help students approach learning with a fun approach. We’ve included our Dyslexia Games curriculum program as a therapeutic intervention for dyslexic and struggling learners.
All of our materials use a dyslexia-friendly font and are designed with dyslexic students in mind, though any child can use them. Students will also continue their study of the United States they began the previous year.
Lessons are easy to plan and prepare. Each day students will complete different learning activities within these journals. They can work independently, in a small group, or as a full class. Our journals are easy to adapt to the individual needs of each student as well. An entire school year of creative and interactive learning ready to go for your classroom.
Students with ASD, ADHD, and Processing Disorders may also use this bundle.

Suggested Lesson Plan
Below is a suggested schedule for your classroom or homeschool. The page amounts listed under each title are the suggested number of pages to complete. We know each day will vary and some days you might get through more and others less. It’s meant to give flexibility while still completing the journal in an entire semester or school year. This is based on a typical 180-day/ 36-week long school year. Adjust as needed if your school, or family, follows a different schedule. We’ve also included a few tips and notes when needed. Students completing Dyslexia Games should work on 2-3 pages per day as the first thing they do in the morning.
