Download or read book The Study of Dyslexia written by Martin Turner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-02-03 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In long-ago 1999, the Dyslexia Institute and Plenum Press conceived a plan for two books which would gather the best of current knowledge and practice in dyslexia studies. This would benefit those—but not only those—many individuals who train with us, acquiring a postgraduate certificate and diploma with our higher education partner, the University of York. Since then, the century changed, the hinge of history creaked and Plenum was taken over by Kluwer Academic Publishers, but the first of the pair, Dyslexia in Practice, emerged quickly and on schedule (Townend and Turner, 2000). Written by staff and close associates of the Institute, its chapters were produced under close scrutiny and with the expedition of a command economy. To our delight, the book has seen a success which went beyond the dreams of its editors: it has been adopted by other courses similar to our own and is widely referred to. The same was never likely to be true of The Study of Dyslexia, which was envisaged as a theoretical companion volume written by authors and researchers of international repute. Nearly five years after the idea first took shape, this second volume now arrives to complete the enterprise, but it has been a very different project.
Download or read book Sound Linkage written by Peter J. Hatcher and published by Wiley. This book was released on 2007-06-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The second edition of this successful teaching package contains a reading and phonological training programme for use with reading-delayed and dyslexic children. It comprises: 54 laminated picture cards, a criterion referenced test of phonological awareness, nine sections of graded phonological awareness exercises, photocopiable record sheets, and an outline of a reading programme within which the phonological awareness training can be used. The second edition includes normative data for the test, and specific examples of letter-sound 'linkage' activities to supplement the purely phonological training activities and also provides information for teachers that should enable them to grade early reading books (23 levels), in order that children can make the link between sounds and words while reading text with at least 90% accuracy. Since 1994, the materials have been used with a wide range of children and been found to be suitable for use with any reading-delayed child, irrespective of cognitive ability and age. Children enjoy as well as benefit from the activities, and exhibit enhanced self-confidence as a consequence of their progress in learning to read. The materials may also be adapted by class-teachers for normal group teaching, and be used by speech therapists to help improve the phonological skills of young clients.

Here you find exercises, in the form of games, to develop the important component skills needed for reading and learning about printed letters.
