A good text to introduce students to the key issues surrounding dyslexia within the classroom. Strategies to promote an inclusive learning environment have been well received by all the students who engaged with the text.

This is a very clearly set out book and very easy to navigate. The practical activities and games have been used by my teachers and they found thay were useful asnd relevant in their classrooms. The ideas are clearly linked to the theory so students undersatnd the rationale for their actions. A good resource for my MA Dyslexia: Research and Practice and British Dyslexia Association's Approved Teacher Status and Approved Practitioner Status awards.
