Decodable Readers
This was one of the first things I learnt on our journey - Dyslexic kids MUST start with decodable readers. My daughter started bringing home regular books for reading which she absolutely could not read and it was crushing her self esteem. Then I learnt about decodable readers.
The Fitzroy Readers are a set of 70 story books that children read for themselves. The Readers take the young learner from simple sounding words like cat and mat (in the 1st story) through to words like appreciative and consciousness(in the final story) in 70 easy steps.
Children using the Fitzroy Readers typically reach a high standard of literacy by the time they enter early secondary schooling. Their literacy opens the door to all other subjects.
Learners make rapid progress with the Fitzroy Readers because of the logical progression of new sounds. There are no surprises in the Fitzroy Method. Each new sound (such as a, er, all, ortion) is introduced with a particular story. The immediate reward of each Reader is that children can decipher more of the words they see in the world around them.
