CHILDREN WITH DYSCALCULIA or AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDER

Here is what we are doing:
We are an Emmy-winning team, working on a documentary on children with learning differences. The film will be about children, for children, and by children. We were wondering whether or not you might be able to help us. First, a bit about our film:

Our goals are:

To create an empowering film, both for those who participate as well as those who watch
To clarify what LDs ARE (dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscaculia, NVLD, auditory processing/expressive language issues)
To shatter myths and establish that people with LDs can be brilliant and talented people who simply learn differently
To make a film about children, BY children, FOR Children that will share, teach, and explain what it is like to live with an LD whether you are getting the help you need or at the other end of the spectrum, still struggling.
To show what children with LDs CAN do, not simply what they cannot

WE need help though:

We have already found many wonderful gifted children with a variety of LDs. What we’ve realized is that in order to fully explain and give an accurate picture of living with an LD, we also need the voice/s of a child or two who are still struggling and who can and are willing to talk about it.
However, we are STILL SEARCHING FOR CHILDREN WHO CAN SPEAK ABOUT WHAT IT IS TO LIVE WITH DYSCALCULIA or AUDITORY PROCESSING DISORDER.

So, you ask, why would they do it?
I hope, to try to help other kids who are struggling and suffering so they’ll know they are not alone; and to empower themselves.

We are looking for expressive, self-aware children, ages 7-12 who have passions or a talent beyond their LD so we can talk both about what they can as well as cannot do.
WHo can describe how these lDs impact them on a daily basis not only in school, but outside it. As well as talk to what their goals are, and what they do well.

No CHILD MAY PARTICIPATE WITHOUT WRITTEN PARENTAL PERMISSION.
We will want to talk to all parents, first as well.

If you feel that you h ave a child who fits these SPECIFIC criteria, please contact us at LDFILM@aol.com
