 Phonics Remedial
Reading
Lessons |
This classic step-by-step program
introduced by three esteemed pioneers in the filed of LD, has been used widely for
teaching reading to children who failed to learn by conventional methods. The manual
presents a unique one-to-one remedial program that differs from other intensive phonics
programs in the consistency with which sound-symbol relationships are presented and
reinforced. Is it multisensory? You bet! The program uses a
grapho-vocal
method in which the student is instructed to visualize, write, say, and hear the sounds
simultaneously as each phoneme is introduced. With extensive reinforcement and
frequent review, this format promotes errorless responses that provide a feeling of
success and increased motivation. (Spiral Book, 144pp - $17.00)
