Box letter shapes, as illustrated above and used in the Crossbow BOX DICTATIONS and SIGHTWORD SPELLING resources, help people with weak auditory - visual connections (common in dyslexia) to "map" sounds onto letters - phonemes onto graphemes, in technical language. EXAMPLES
The BOXES FONT utility is actually a suite of 5 fully-featured tru-type fonts that you load directly onto your hard drive, and that you use just like Ariel, Times New Roman or whatever.
|
EXAMPLES: You may want to
prompt a specific word, as in a cloze passage: You may want to encourage cursive writing in the boxes by using "boxes joined up" (b) You may want to show all or some of the letters in the boxes (c) You may want to use the script font without the boxes (D) You may want to prompt certain letters to practise specific spellings by using "boxes colored" (E) Or you may want any
combination of these
(F) |
THE
BOXES FONT IS EACH EXAMPLE BELOW SAYS "tHIS IS THE BOXES FONT"
|
In each case, it is simply a matter of highlighting the word and changing the font. Once installed on your hard drive, BOXES is there whenever you want it.
