Resources to support Adults and Children who are Dyslexic

I will gradually build a range of resources to support people who are dyslexic. The Coloured Reading Rulers have been extremely effective for dyslexics who find that when reading; the print is blurry, words moves about the page or they frequently lose their place. Wooden Alphabet Letters are so versatile and I consider a must for teaching children or adults who reverse letters, have difficulty sequencing the alphabet or have experienced real difficulty learning to spell. How to Identify, Support and Teach Children with Special Needs in the Mainstream Classroom is a manual for anyone involved with children with special needs. However it contains a lot of information that would help you identify and support children and adults who are dyslexic.
