Review

"Any practitioner with an interest in the acquisition of literacy who takes the time to study 'Overcoming Dyslexia' in some detail... will gain fresh insights into how they might approach the teaching of reading and spelling." British Journal of Special Education


Product Description

The first edition of this highly successful book received praise from many practioners in the field of language and learning difficulties.

"Any practioner with an interest in the acquisition of literacy who takes the time to study Overcoming Dyslexia in some detail...will gain fresh insights iinto how they might approach the teaching of reading and spelling."
––British Journal of Special Education

The second edition of this practical book has been richly nourished by the experience of teachers and pupils usiing the first edition in the classroom. The authors have created new links between multisensory learning and the National Literacy Strategy and have applied these to the National Literacy Framework and the structure of the Literacy Hour. Part one gives an informative account of ther development of literacy skills and the barriers to learning for the dyslexic learner. Part two, ′Skills in Action,′ provides a clear route to the development of Individual Education Plans, and will appeal to SENCOs and teachers and assistants working with the updated Code of Practice, providing additional support at school level and ′School Action Plus.′ Part three, ′The Step by Step Programme,′ details a systematic approach to learning letter sounds and high frequency words that can be used as part of a specialist programme or within the Literacy Hour.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent introduction to managing childhood dyslexia, 5 Sep 2001
By A Customer
This book gives an excellent overview of dyslexic conditions of all types - from mild to severe, and gives insightful descriptions and examples from children of all ages. The classroom tips will be invaluable for both teachers and teaching assistants/support staff, while the practical exercises and suggested learning aids will also prove useful to parents trying to help their children at home. The step-by-step programme for phonics development in the back can be developed as shown or may usefully be adapted to fit individual classroom or home-lesson requirements.
