Wonderful, must have book for any primary schooler with learning differences :))
This is a great book to work on syllables, sounds and words.Very well done, colorful and easy to follow for the child and the parent :)This is my sonâs favorite homework book as it is well illustrated and fun to do. A must have if your child has dyslexia. It makes sense to the children and I would recommend this book from 1st grade to ….My son told me that from Kindergarten the words were difficult and that he did not know what to do with all that. This book helped him tremendously to review the sounds, the blending sounds, to understand how words work in a sentence. To review and practice his letters and mostly to ENJOY learning !!!!!

Keeps my child engaged
My son is about 30 pages into the book and looks forward to doing the lessons. He’s in kindergarten, so in addition to school he also does 2 pages of the book 3 nights a week. Being dyslexic myself, this has been an eye opener to do along with him. I can relate to his thought process and help guide him through his struggles.There are many great aspects of the book, but my favorite part is the writing exercises for the alphabet. Each letter is demonstrated using circles and stars to show him where to place his pencil, where to draw the line, and where to end the process. He used to write all of his letters with no rhyme or reason and no particular starting or ending point.Whenever he brings work home from school, I can clearly see what letters have been practiced in the book versus the lessons the he hasn’t done yet. It’s a remarkable improvement!After he completes this book, I will likely order another one in hopes that the repetition of the lessons will help him build confidence and help with his poor short term memory.This is a great book with great lessons.

What I didn’t know I needed–fills the gap!
I’ve been working on letters with my daughter since she was 3. Now that she is 6 1/2, I have finally googled symptoms of dyslexia and faced the reality that she appears to be not simply a “slow reader.” I also ordered several books and studied the website of the International Dyslexia Association. That is where I learned the concepts of “structured literacy” and realized that I had long ago neglected “phonemic awareness” and moved past it before she was ready. The exercises in this workbook are the first thing I have found that specifically address this in a way that does not immediately frustrate her or turn her off the way a standard workbook does. (But she is often tired/stretched at the end of them, which is how I know she is learning–specifically, she is learning awareness of sounds that I didn’t know I needed to teach.) Because so many of the exercises are picture-based and interactive in novel/unpredictable ways (spinning the paperclip to determine which picture to match the beginning sound of), they appeal to her curiosity and keep her interested. They are also easy to repeat when the concept still needs work. And they are short, so easy to find time to do AND they challenge and reinforce the concepts without being exhausting or tedious. I know that these exercises seem “easy” to a lot of people and kids, but for my otherwise bright/advanced kid whose mind is REALLY resistant to limiting her writing to the way the letters are “supposed” to go and becomes suddenly exhausted and distracted when I ask her to sound out words or letters, it is PERFECT–the early intervention I was looking for. My many thanks to the author and publisher!!

A help but not a stand alone
I got this to help my daughter. She is on the spectrum, has ADHD, dyslexia, and dysgraphia. Reading is hard. She is homeschooled, and we use All About Reading curriculum (highly recommend!) Anyway, bought this to use as a supplement to help reinforce. And itâs fine for that. But please donât buy this with no other help. Thereâs obvious flaws right away. It starts right away trying to nail down letter sounds. Excellent! But some of the games use blended sounds. Most experts believe that APD and dyslexia go hand in hand. I agree. So when a blended sound is snuck in, they mess up. Review of blended sounds should come after individual sound review not mixed in. Example: they have a game where you color like sounds. So one of them is a âg.â The words are gate, girl, goat, etc. Fine. But the next letter sound is âc.â They use the word âchair.â So, add this book to help reinforce some concepts. However, donât plan to use all the book or use it in order. Your child might get confused.
Be aware this drawer is very small. I’m a bit disappointed with that. Not worth 40 bucks –

Update-child loves it!
Update:I began this with a student and they absolutely love it! Itâs very interactive and engaging. The student asked to do multiple pages a day (and this is a child who does not enjoy school). Canât recommend enough!Original review: The activities in this workbook look engaging and align with what we know about the science of reading. I think this particular workbook would greatly benefit a child when paired with a systematic phonics book called âPhonics Parhwaysâ or the free program Treasure Hunt Reading by Prenda (a program designed especially for those with dyslexia). I donât think this workbook, by itself would be enough for a parent working with a child after school to correct reading struggles. But the two programs I mention are either very low cost or free and when paired with this workbook, could really help a child who is struggling. All that being said, this is a really fantastic workbook & it is very evident the author has done a lot of research on the science of reading.

I bought this book for my grade 1 son when we began our homeschool journey. He loved it so much. After a bad experience in Kindergarten he loves learning again. He is a confident reader now. His teachers and family members have been so impressed at how far he has come in six months. Now he is reading at an advanced level independently. He is not dyslexic but the methods in this book really helped him in areas he was struggling.

I have been working through loads of different ideas to try and make things easier for my son. This book is inviting because of the colours and activities. I would say you need to read each activity first so that you know what is expected before doing it together so they don’t try and get out of doing it. To anyone even looking at this review, the fact you are looking to provide additional support for a person who has Dyslexia is brilliant, this book will help. Life is tough and Dyslexia makes it so much harder – but it is only a hitch 🙂
