One hour of reading is all you need to learn Sound Reading . The Sound Sense Activity Book 3. Subscribe to Sound Reading Solutions Email Group . The Sound Reading approach is effective for 1st graders through adults who have reading problems, including learning disabilities and dyslexia. Sound Reading can be used not only in remedial programs, but also with people who read - but not quite well enough.
Some children seem to learn to read as if by magic, while others labor to complete a basic passage.
Struggling readers have a simple problem - they aren't able to rapidly translate written words into phonemes. Phonemes are the individual sounds of speech and thought. They must laboriously figure out text. Children who develop phonemic awareness, sensitivity to the discrete sound patterns in spoken words, are those who most easily learn to read. This ability is not developed by phonics programs or simply through conversation.
