Try activities for Dyslexic students supporting visual discrimination,
alphabet learning, phonics, spelling and sentence development. Get strategies
for “b” and “d” letter reversals.
Explore a myriad of resources available for intervention with Dyslexic
students. We’ll look at the On Track Series, a 5-part reading program that
support literacy from visual perception to whole sentences. It supports visual
discrimination, alphabet learning, phonics, spelling and sentence development,
carrying students right up the stage of “fluency”.
Each activity is configurable to the ability level of the student, and all
activities are supported with worksheets, as well as clip art, and built in
record keeping. Finally, we’ll preview the “b” and “d” Letter Olympics.
Students repeatedly practice discriminating “b” and “d” with six instructional
Olympic challenges. Come prepared to experiment! Attendees pick their favorite
program from the On Track Series (worth $69), a subscription to
www.elementaryzone.com, plus a comprehensive set of SEMERC handouts and
research on Dyslexia and technology.
