Please visit our website with Manitoba Teacher’s Society
Purpose of MTSLD
We are a special area group of educators and professionals who are committed to building awareness and capacity for Manitoba teachers who work with students with Specific Learning Disabilities (Dyslexia, Dysgraphia, Dyscalculia). We will provide opportunities to network, advocate, and build community to celebrate our SLD learners. We will also strive to showcase impactful local projects and initiatives that are utilizing best practices for SLD learners. We will partner with specialists in the field of SLD to provide targeted professional development promoting instruction that is essential for some, but beneficial for all.
We welcome educators and other interested members of our community (in Manitoba and beyond) who are interested in Specific Learning Disabilities.
