- This book, by Jean Robertson, deals with both theoretical and practical considerations of dyslexia and reading. It discusses the developmental model of reading and the role the cerebral hemispheres play in the reading process, the visual and auditory aspects of reading and the development of intervention programs. Subtypes of dyslexia are considered and examples given of pupils assessed and allocated to groups. Two different intervention methods are then discussed. Case studiesare used to illustrate them and this section is followed by a discussion of experimental work from the two studies. The appendices contain material for direct work with pupils.

- Sale!With reports from several studies showing the benefits of teaching young children about morphemes, this book is essential reading for anyone concerned with helping children to read and write. By breaking words down into chunks of meaning that can be analyzed as complete units rather than as strings of individual letters, children are better able to make sense of the often contradictory spelling and reading rules of English. As a result, their enjoyment of learning about words increases, and their literacy skills improve. Written by leading researchers for trainee teachers, practising teachers and interested parents, this highly accessible and innovative book provides sound, evidence-based advice and materials that can be used to help teach children about morphemes, and highlights the beneficial effects of this approach.
