The Let Me Learn Centre has collaborated with SpLD service in a number of projects. The first project between the two centres was carried out in Zebbug Primary school, a school participating in the Dyslexia Friendly Initiative. The focus of this collaboration revolved around study skills with the year groups of 4, 5 and 6. Students completed the Learning Connections Inventory and class profiles were prepared. Students learnt about the four learning patterns through the use of the four characters Ġeru, Fina, Faru and Żrinġi. In the ensuing in-class sessions, students learnt how to make use of strategies like high-lighting, mind maps, study cards, the use of ‘Wh’ questions and the use of the senses. The year 6 groups also had a session about study skills and exam strategies using the LML Process.
A similar project was carried out in February 2020 in the primary school of Mqabba. During this project, Let Me Learn was integrated in the application of study skills in the year 6 classes. Students learnt how to make use of mind-maps and study cards and how these could be adapted and personalised depending on students’ own learning patterns.
