1. Use Children's Audio Books & Sensory Techniques to Teach Children How to Read
When you’ve a child who is learning disabled you will know how difficult it is for them to learn how
to write, spell, read and perhaps learn their numbers. No amount of software programs or audio
can beat the 1-2-1 tuition of a loving parent, nevertheless they’re the ideal resources for teaching
children to read and to make your life so much easier.
Younger children like being read to and pointing to the words as you read them out loud, can help
to give children a positive attitude for learning to read. If you can't spare the time to do this, then
abridged audio books are a wonderful alternative.
Children identify with words readily if they have heard them previously. Reading to your child
introduces them to vocabulary that they can't read on their own and helps the learning disabled
keep up with their peer groups.
Train your children to listen to you reading out loud by giving encouragement. Once you have
stopped reading, it can be helpful to them if you start talking about what you’ve just read, as a way
to be sure they were aware of what the book was all about.
There is certainly no reason to stop reading a bedtime story just because he or she's getting older.
Continue reading for as long as your child wants you to. Schoolchildren often need to read books
chosen by their tutors so there is no reason why you can't swap the routine bedtime stories for
them. You’re not cheating, these may be books your children have not seen or heard before and
therefore are not able to read them without difficulty.
Older children might prefer to make use of children’s audio CD books instead of being read to by
their parents. Where possible you may get the school reading books in unabridged audio books to
ensure that your children will still see the text while they’re listening.
On the subject of writing and spelling, children will often have to write a word numerous times to
be able to learn it. A dyslexic child may write a different spelling of the word each time, which
might cause some irritation on your part and/or your children’s. At this point, it can be helpful if
rather than rewriting the word you get your children to physically make it.
Make up a box for storing a variety of items that have different smells, colours and/or textures

2. designed to stimulate the senses, for instance: glitter glue; sandpaper; fabrics; crayons or felt tips
and coloured paper and pencils.
By using these and/or many other household items, your child will cut out the shape of the letter,
then listen to you speak the sound and also the name of the letter. Your child will then repeat the
sound and the name and also physically make the actual letter and in so doing these audio-visual
actions will create memories that will be used when trying to recall information.
A further great idea is to write with a “smelly pen” or crayon then your child would link the word,
letter or number with the stinky pen just by relying on their own sense of smell. An efficient and
also fun way to learn!
Starting with the sense of sound you could read aloud or play children’s audio books to introduce
your child to the world of language. Then again, the more senses you make use of the best
chance your children can have of recalling the information.
By utilizing these and also other sensory techniques along with Audio Books on CD, your children
need not stress about numbers and letters. Working together will take time, patience and some
imagination nevertheless the results can be worth the effort.
