For the Phonics lesson: Dyslexia friendly Games for spelling and reading

Dyslexia friendly teaching tip.

Dyslexia causes information processing difficulties which impair short term memory. This in turn often results in increased anxiety which further impedes learning. Good multisensory games are an important aspect of dyslexia friendly teaching as they reduce anxiety as well as reinforcing learning across different learning channels.
