I am feeling quite frustrated at the moment. I have a possible chance of working with children who are physically and mentally disabled.
The school has approach me and asked for any ideas for teaching children with dyslexia.
They do not use any phonic strategies, only multi sensory learning.
They have asked for any idea on improving handwriting and reading.
I feel that jolly phonics can have a positive effect on the children's learning style.
How can I improve on their handwriting and reading skills with multi sensory only?

Will the synthetic phonics help?
