I was just introduced to a breakthrough strategy called the Davis Dyslexia Correction. This is a creative and meaning based theory used for acquisition of basic reading skills. Children and adults use clay to model concepts associated with word meaning while modeling the letters of each word in clay. According to the website, at the primary level, these methods provide a route to learning to read that seems easier for students with dyslexic tendencies instead of traditional instruction. These methods are also used with older children and adults who have dyslexia and often leads to rapid progress in their reading abilities. I was very intrigued after reading this and hope we can use this strategy for anyone wishing to improve on their reading abilities. Let me know what your thoughts are. Here is the link I found this at http://www.dyslexia.com/science/different_pathways.htm and http://www.davisdyslexia.com/faqs.html for more information.
