What behavior might dyslexic learners exhibit as a sign of carelessness?

Dyslexic learners may display acting out as a manifestation of frustration or misunderstanding. This behavior can be misinterpreted as carelessness, though it is often a result of the challenges they face with reading and learning. Acting out may stem from feelings of inadequacy or anxiety related to academic tasks they struggle to perform, leading them to exhibit behaviors that draw attention or distract from their difficulties.

In contrast, excessive laughter, silence, or aggressive behavior may not be directly linked to the learning challenges typically associated with dyslexia. While students may occasionally laugh nervously, withdraw into silence, or express aggression in response to their frustrations, these responses differ from the more observable and immediate action of acting out. Understanding these behaviors in the context of dyslexia can provide insight into the emotional and psychological landscape of students facing these challenges.
