Teaching Reading Really is “Rocket Science”

According to research, many children with reading and spelling difficulties need help:  

  • improving the ability to order and move sounds within spoken syllables (phonemic awareness),

  • associating those sounds with printed letters within words (phonological awareness), and

  • transferring these abilities to actual reading and spelling.

Collectively, these are often called “multisensory” reading techniques.

 

Did You Know That

Children with dyslexia or other specific reading (or spelling) difficulties:
 
  can learn how to read? 

              need specialized help?   

    either read words incorrectly, or spend so much time and energy trying to decipher them, 
              that they don’t understand much of what they read?
