Dyslexia causes information processing difficulties which impair short term memory. This in turn often results in increased anxiety which further impedes learning. Good multisensory games are an important aspect of dyslexia friendly teaching as they reduce anxiety as well as reinforcing learning across different learning channels.

FINAL BLENDS GAME
/ CONSONANT
SOUND FLASHCARDS PACK: Final Blends A unique card+dice game for reading and spelling with final consonant clusters, and for use as consonant sound flashcards Age 6+. A lot of children can handle blends at the beginning of the word, but come unstuck when it comes to spelling them at the end. This can sometimes be as a result of auditory discrimination problems, although this is not always the case. Final Blends is an excellent resource for enabling your students to keep practising a range of these final sounds until spelling them is no longer a problem- and to have fun while they are doing so! Sounds covered: nd, ng, nk, nt, nch, tch, ld, lk, mp, ft, st, sk. Various playing options allow for very competitive, quick-thinking play, or straightforward turn-taking rules that give no player any advantage over the other(s). 2-6 players can play. FLASHCARD USE: A number of children are confused by the "schwa" sound made when sounding out single consonants in the traditional way, and need to attach a vowel sound to the consonant. FINAL BLENDS cards are ideal for this purpose. Card size: 85mm x 55mm. (Standard playing card size) PRICE US$ 12.95 |
