5.0 out of 5 stars Help for non-readers, January 20, 2000

This review is from: Phonic Remedial Reading Lessons (Spiral-bound)

As a middle school teacher I have found a small number of students who, after 6-8 years of school, are still nonreaders. These students have normal or above intellegence, and yet cannot decode words. They almost seem to not be able to see the words on the page, and instead, guess what the word might be. I have been working intensely with one such student using this book. The book is a series of lessons that begin with the short vowel sounds, and introduce one new sound for each lesson. By the end of the lessons (lesson 76) the student is reading compound words. The lessons are carefully sequenced and easy to use. After 2 months using this book, my student is now reading. He went from guessing the words from context to actually reading the words on the page. This 8th grade student is now a reader for the first time. This book is meant for a one-on-one tutoring situation for students who have not acquired sound symbol relationship. In my experience with my one student the program works. I would recommend it to teachers working with special education dyslexic students. They CAN learn to read, and this program does work for them.

The book was delivered fast and in perfect condition. It is a great book to use with older children/adults who do not have basic phonetic skills. This version is a bit hard to find and I appreciated it's availability.
