This is a simple, jargon-free book full of practical ideas for teaching the first stages of reading and phonics to children who have speech and language delay. Brought together by a best-selling author and educator, this invaluable toolkit: covers approaches to the teaching of reading for a wide range of special educational needs so that no child is left behind; provides practical activities and clear explanations so that it is perfect for parents as well as those teaching or overseeing the literacy curriculum with learning support staff; and links to an online tool allowing children to make their own reading photobooks so that learning is personalised and interactive. There has been an emphasis on phonics approaches in recent years, and this book is a reminder of alternative methods of teaching reading, including a visual approach to phonics, which may be more suitable for those children with language delay and complex needs.
