Dyslexic learner and teacher Alais Winton shows the positives of being dyslexic, and makes learning (and even spelling!) fun, with games and activities to make school learning simple. An inventive and practical book for children aged 7 to 13 who have been identified as having dyslexic tendencies, this book contains practical and creative activities for kids and teens to use, such as Spelling Sculptures and Hear it, Sing it, Beat it! The games and activities use the four different learning styles that work best with dyslexics - thinking in pictures, in movement, in music or socially. With funny cartoons, which appeal to visual thinkers, and a section with advice on how parents and guardians can aid learning, this is an essential toolkit for any dyslexic child.
As a teacher who has a student who may have Dyslexia, I read this book for tips. Many of the tips were confusing to me, because they seemed like a lot of work, but I am going to try to teach the puzzle idea to help students learn to spell. I know we all have brains that are wired differently. I'm glad Alais wrote this book. Also, I had never heard of a C-pen before, and how it can read text to the user. It is a quick read.
