As an elementary special education teacher, many of my students have a specific learning disability in reading. These children have been in intense explicit instruction and at times are reluctant to participate because they need a change. I want to bring the joy back into their learning while still working on skills geared towards their disability. The children need Dyslexia games. These series of workbooks provide the children with ample opportunities to concentrate on specific details in each worksheet which results in children, who naturally overcome symptoms of Dyslexia and other reading difficulties. Observing one of my students work on some sample pages, I became hopeful. Many of my students have been in several explicit reading programs and to watch them lay their heads down on the desk when they mispronounce specific sounds or words is heartbreaking. Mentioning the creative dyslexia games, and allowing the students to work through some of the activities they became excited. They are ready to try a different approach, using the creative side of their brains. These children are hungry to learn how to read. The skills are necessary for college and the future. Giving these children a new methodology to learn their letter sounds, and words will provide opportunities for the children to grow in their reading skills and with that, the reality of reading any book is promising.
