About this title

Synopsis

Do you have a child consistently guessing short, common words instead of reading them? Or maybe there is some skipping of words and even whole lines of text. Perhaps reading practice often ends in a sulk or tantrum, even though you only try to help? And are you seeing a bright child, with masses of potential, starting to feel stupid just because of their weak reading and spelling? These are some of the baffling patterns that parents and teachers have to deal with each day, usually without any explanation for what they are seeing or a solution they can apply. Learning to read should be an exciting and fun time together and definitely can be just that, but it often ends up as a daily stress. Worse still, around one in six children never learns to read accurately, according to the regular OECD surveys. All learning and education is just neurology. When you get the neurology right, learning can become faster and a lot more fun. In this book, David and Sarah explain the neurological patterns that seem to drive the different issues faced by children learning to read, and suggest practical solutions to each of them. There are nine patterns in all, with several clearly linked to the established symptoms of dyslexia. David and Sarah's Easyread System team work with thousands of children and they routinely aim for 100% success each year by tracking these nine potential issues for each child.
