They are preently being adapted for health and childcare students with dyslexia and other learning disabilities, as well as their peers. Games and activities used with health and social care students using a multisensory approach that also allows for differentiation: Pairs. Matching key words and Pictures. Print and cut out up to 12 words and matching pictures related to the student’s course. Place them face down for the student to match up. (visual) Prefix/suffix game. Print and cut out key root words and the matching prefix/suffixes on separate cards. (Hilda King Educational Games Tel 01494 813947)) Alphabet wall chart with pictures using key words. (visual mental picture) Jolly phonics - using and action for each letter sound. Get the student to make up their own actions. (kinetic. See course book: 3.2.3) Clues. Print and cut out 12 key words with letter sounds and lay them out face up. Give the student a clue for each word so they can point it out. (visual and auditory) Draw 26 squares and fill each one alphabetically using food words. A nutrition text book can be used as an aid. (visual/kinetic) Hand writing key words in the air. (kinetic) Matching key words. Print and cut out up to 12 words that are related to the student’s ability to blend words with different sounds, e.g. mug. (visual) Word Search. Which homophone? Produce a cloze exercise with the homophones removed from the sentence. Sticky letters games– using a sticky memo pad -list words with b and d in them and get the student to place them into 2 separate lines on the table. Brainstorming by asking the students to build a mind map placing a specific sound in the centre e.g. ‘h’ to produce a key word spider gram related to the course e.g. Use coloured highlighters to identify different sound and word blend/patterns Sounding the letters of a difficult word out loud and repeating them back using a tape recorder (auditory) Make a personal spelling dictionary -e.g. ‘a’ for appointment – with words broken down into syllables. Bingo. Make a set of bingo cards with 12 key words related to course. Keep a list of these words and shout them out at random until the student has a line a then a full house. Use the magic ‘e’ rule – e.g. slid- slide. List words with and without the magic ‘e’. And make a separate letter e for the student to place along the words to practise and read the words.
