Outside the Square Film 3 - The Explicit Teaching of Language and Literacy
Current statistics indicate that over 40% of children struggle with learning to read. Many of these children are instructional casualties of the ineffective teaching of reading. Learning to talk is a naturally acquired skill but the brain is not hard wired to learn to read. All children require explicit teaching to take them from speech to print... and crack the alphabet code.
Prominent educators showcase scientifically researched evidence-based methods including explicit instruction and the 'Big 6' of Reading. Research indicates that a building a bridge between oral language and written language facilitates reading acquisition. The effective teaching of reading encompasses oral language, phonological and phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension.

As a mother of a highly dyslexic child, thank you so much for this series. I hope one day something similar is done for the high school years as just about all information and support services are directed at primary level. These children even after intervention still struggle in high school on a different scale. I would also go as far to say that high school teachers are even less knowledgeable about dyslexia than their primary colleagues. Every year, we have at least one teacher who does not understand or believes in dyslexia. My teenager in year 9 is now learning ways to study and learn independently. As she looks at going to year 12 she not only still does intervention but is also learning ways to learn her way independently. Teachers not willing to learn about dyslexia or read IEP’s severely affect her learning at this level as well as her ability to finish year 12.

Hi Lisa, my son is now in Year 12 and this has been a marathon. I agree that films for the secondary school years would be really valuable.
This is what teaching literacy is all about!!!
Who is the woman teaching in this video, and what resource is she using? I'm looking for a SOR curriculum.
