The picture method used in this video can be use for teaching spelling to make learning more fun and interesting!

Spelling Technique for Dyslexic




"Most dyslexics have problems with reading and spelling, specifically with phonics , decoding words and remembering how to spell them. But for many, visual aids are extremely important in all aspects of learning. This technique uses visual cues within the words to help the child recognize the word and remember how to spell it."
