The Multisensory Structured Language methodology + 1:1 intensity + daily M-F year round frequency + 18-36 month duration are the INTERdependent dyslexia therapy elements that consistently yields independence in reading and writing on par with non-dyslexic peers. Point made in minutes 12+. Such a clear presentation of the vital points, thank you!!!!

+Key To Reading & Writing LLC You are very welcome. Thank you for your feedback and the kind compliment. Speaking scientifically and neurodevelopmentally, what if other programs preceded MSL? For example, programs that begin with oral language and multisensory training based on neurodevelopmental models of the development of speech perception and production have been shown to help students make very large gains in phonological awareness and reading in only 2 to 4 months, not 18-36. Could it be possible that the oral language programs should be provided BEFORE the OG, MSL, Barton, Slosson, Wilson, .... phonics programs? Let these parents explain their experiences to you, as programs that start with sensory perception and integration (e.g. visually watching the mouth, explicit practice coordinating motor movements of articulators to produce speech sounds, sensory perception of movements within the mouth by teeth, tongue, lips, air stream, and an explicit cognitive awareness of how to describe, think about, compare and contrast these sensory and motor features of speech sounds, such that phoneme perception, phoneme segmenting and phoneme blending are practiced with one-syllable words prior to learning the alphabet letters - identical to what children who have well developed phonological awareness skills, decoding skills, sight words skills and reading fluency are believed to do with a high degree of accuracy. Let these parents explain how MSL/OG/Barton/Reading Mastery were not successful for their children, while the neurodevelopmental sensory/motor approach of the NOW! Foundations program was highly successful and only in 2-4 months to get students reading on grade level. www.nowprograms.com/testimonials/

It's absolutely Educational Malpractice and injustice our Dept of Ed continues to ignore the decades of science and technology. Thank you for giving us a simple A, B & C TED talk that will hopefully reach DOE and ignite some implementation or piloting programs that actually work.

I agree completely Patricia. Now, can you consider that it's not too late to improve your weaker skills and make reading much easier for you? Many other adults, from surgeons to firefighters to moms to college students, have aready taken on this challenge and with the evodence-based method of the NOW! Foundations for Speech, Language, Reading and Spelling program they no longer struggle to read/spell and are no longer defined by or hindered by their dyslexia.

So how do we accomplish this? I am a para educator and work with a boy who I believe to be dyslexic and he is falling more and more behind in school work (2nd grade) due to the fact that he can't read. I am looking for practical ways I can help without ruffling the feathers of my higher ups because they supposedly know more than I do. I'm not knocking them, they are busy and overwhelmed, but I have an opportunity to work with this boy one on one at times, and I'd like to truly help him. How do I do it? What are some simple things I can do?

So how do I, as a homeschooling mom, help my daughter? Since I still struggle with reading, I was happy to learn age is not a factor in being able to change! Are their online curriculums? Are materials available to homeschoolers?
@Abeaness8 жыл бұрын
There are some online programs available. Reading Horizon's looks to be very good and they appear to have support available to homeschooling parents (from what I have heard through the grapevine, as well as videos. Barton method is another highly recommended program that I hear is very successful and has lots of support available to those doing it at home outside of the traditional school system. Then there is Rosetta Stone's Lexia program which is an online program, but not sure how much support is available, but it would probably be better than nothing at all, but it doesn't seem to be quite as intensive or have as much support available as the other programs noted above. Also, have you looked into if there are any not for profit groups (Scottish Rite/Masons) or contacted Wilson Reading to ask if they know of anyone looking for practicum students and if your child meets their requirements for a practicum student. Just some thoughts....

The difference between Barton, Wilson, Reading Horizons, and most other programs, and the type of instruction discussed in the TEDx Talk is that those programs are multi-sensory phonics programs. Neurodevelopmental reading instruction, like what is found in NOW! Foundations for Speech, Language, Reading, and Spelling®, begins with skills that are pre-phonetic. If this type of instruction is utilized to strengthen foundational spoken-language skills, a multi-sensory phonics program becomes more effective.

Where you fail in this video and your explanation is Dyslexia is more than just "a reading difficulty". Language is more than just articulation and sound. My son is Dyslexia, he can read, but not always does the words have "meaning" for him. Basically, he has been taught to memorize how to read, he didn't really "learn". He thinks in pictures, not in letters/words. Just maybe, people should teach Dyslexics the way their brain works, and not how an NT brain works. Just maybe, they should try to accept them for who they are, and not try to change them into someone they are not.
@NOWProgramsonline8 жыл бұрын
Anita, thank you for your comment. You are very correct in that dyslexia is more than sounds and reading. It is a sensory processing/language-based learning difficulty - it gets much more complicated than this, but with 15 minutes to speak it's only possible to share a limited amount of information. What if a child with dyslexia "learns differently" only because no one has successfully taught him/her how to develop true phonological awareness and the ability to sound out words? What if after a truly effective and evidence-based intervention, the child does develop grade-level phonological awareness and the ability to sound out and read words? What if brain imaging studies with these children, who used to struggle to read, but no longer struggle and can now read accurately, fluently and for meaning, actually show that the brain activity pattern in the child who USED to struggle to read is now identical to the brain activity of a child who does not struggle to learn to read? So, to reiterate, we now know that the child who used to struggle to learn to read and used to have an atypical brain activity scan, after evidence-based intervention, NOW has grade-level reading skills and a brain activity pattern that matches other children with grade-level reading skills. Where's the evidence that a person with dyslexia's brain is simply set as it is? To me, this is an indication of ineffective instruction, lacking evidence-based methods and solid research. Without proper instruction, the dyslexic child's brain will never have the opportunity to build the proper wiring that will allow him to pursue their full potential; their dreams and goals. There is no large-scale and reliable scientific evidence at this time that indicates the brain of a child with dyslexia is incapable of rewiring itself AND learning to accurately and fluently sound out words. MOST importantly, we can PREVENT these inefficient language and motor wiring difficulties from developing in the first place.
