Entry: 052
Name: Teal
Age: 11
Champion: Sport

My champion is Sport; it relaxes me. My dyslexia makes spelling hard and school stressful. My favorite sport is tennis I like tennis because it lets me relax and it calms me down. 

In tennis, it all comes naturally and I only need to be told once to know what I need to do. Tennis is fun because you can release your emotions in your shots. Tennis calms me the most, and it makes me feel de-stressed and happy.   

However, with spelling it just doesn`t stick, I learn something one session but I have forgotten it by the next. During spelling classes I try my hardest to get work done but I normally don`t get it finished.  

Dyslexia makes me stress. But at school I try to hide it, because I`m embarrassed. I need to work on talking to my teacher so we can change tasks so they make sense for me when I`m agitated and stressed. 


I think it all evens out in life. Some people aren`t so good school and others aren`t as coordinated. Sport is my champion and I`m not going to let dyslexia hold me back.
