All children benefit from hands-on learning opportunities, but for children with speech and language difficulties, these opportunities are essential. When children struggle to learn from more traditional instruction, interactive, engaging and multi sensory input is crucial for them to gain the skills their peers acquire more easily. Hands-on book companion sets help children to visualize and comprehend story concepts more easily. Being able to manipulate and play with story elements make literacy more enticing for struggling learners. Visual literacy strategies such as sequencing pocket charts and graphic organizers can help students grasp ideas and express themselves (in their personalised interactive notebooks) more coherently.
