My daughter has really taken to Easyread; she enjoys the daily ritual. We are already starting to see improvements in her reading. She is more confident to read text on signs and in magazines and menus that she sees around and about. Her fluency with school reading has improved radically in the last 2 weeks and her teacher has commented that she has begun to use her phonic skills to decode long/unusual words.
I think she started reading quite early by memorising the words as pictures and didn’t really need to decode in the ways that the other children did. As she reached the higher reading levels this became ineffective. Now she is learning the skills she should have learnt earlier.
