  This book helps parents and teachers unlock the reader in every child. It provides a basic, quick-to-read guide to teaching reading, drawing on best practice over the years and avoiding 'here today, gone tomorrow' fashions. But it is not just a guide. It is a toolkit too. Each section includes practical activities, games and 'try this' ideas to help develop reading skills and overcome obstacles. Every page offers some fresh perspectives to try - either at home or in the classroom- all with a practical focus. There are games and activities to: build phonological awareness turning decoders into real readers help strugglers overcome resistance to reading harness visual literacy and children's passions meet individual needs (including children with specific learning difficulties) and achieve literacy outcomes without even teaching literacy. Published in mid-2010 and fast becoming a classic, Unlocking the Reader in Every Child has received five-star ratings from teachers. Published by Ransom Publishing for reluctant and struggling readers.
