LILRC Webinar: Temple Grandin – How I Learned to Read

August 19 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am EDT

Join LILRC as we welcome back author Dr. Temple Grandin who will share her personal journey of how she learned to read in the 3rd grade and what worked and didn’t work for her in personal childhood reading journey.

About Temple Grandin:

“Dr. Grandin did not talk until she was three and a half years old. She was fortunate to get early speech therapy. Her teachers also taught her how to wait and take turns when playing board games. She was mainstreamed into a normal kindergarten at age five. Oliver Sacks wrote in the forward of Thinking in Pictures that her first book Emergence: Labeled Autistic was “unprecedented because there had never before been an inside narrative of autism.” Dr. Sacks profiled Dr. Grandin in his best selling book Anthropologist on Mars.

Dr. Grandin became a prominent author and speaker on both autism and animal behavior. Today she is a professor of Animal Science at Colorado State University.”
