The Prentice School provides a unique learning environment purposely designed for children with language-based learning differences. Prentice is the only day school in Orange County and one of only a few in California with a program that focuses solely on the needs of children with dyslexia. While our primary service area is Orange County, Prentice also draws students from Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside counties. On average, for each academic year, we have 240 students enrolled from approximately 36 different Southern California cities. Prentice teachers receive extensive training in the Slingerland® Approach, an adaptation for classroom use of the Orton-Gillingham method. This innovative instructional method is central to our students’ successes. There are three major learning pathways – visual, auditory and kinesthetic (the memory of sequential movement in writing and speech).

Is your child a pre-reader? Do you have someone in your family with reading difficulties or would you like to help develop methods for the early identification of reading problems? We are looking for children ages 4-6 with or without a family history of reading difficulties for our research study at Children's Hospital Boston/Waltham, MA.

What is involved? We will play computer games with your child and look at their language, reading, auditory and musical abilities. We will also look how your child’s brain processes sounds, language and pictures using safe brain imaging technology. We are looking for pre-reading children with a family history of reading difficulties (one parent or one sibling with reading difficulties).

Why participate? Your help will be invaluable to families and scientists interested in reading, language and cognitive development, early diagnosis of learning disabilities and improvement of teaching methods. Your child will receive a gift certificate to a local bookstore and a picture of his or her brain.

Where? Children’s Hospital Boston/Waltham; Developmental Medicine Center

When? At your convenience, weekdays or weekends.

ANNOUNCING A NEW DYSLEXIA WEBSITE FROM THE HEART OF TEXAS

http://www.dyslexiavoice.info

The guiding purpose of my website is to spread encouragement, and to say to all: never, never, ever give up.

Included on my new website is a Parent's Corner, Teacher's Corner and a special section just for children. In the Children's Corner is a link to a FREE typing course for ages 7-11 that uses animals to do the teaching. It is delightful. Then there is a link to a website developed by a bright 12 year old with dyslexia. This site can be a boost to your child's self esteem as he sees another child with dyslexia doing something so neat.

Also included is a section on encouragement and a highlight of a famous living dyslexic.

You have an opportunity to leave a message or a blog about your experiences with dyslexia. Letting your child blog about their dyslexia is a neat way to help them understand it and to air their feelings.

WHAT'S THIS THING CALLED DYSLEXIA? a Handbook for Students, Parents and Teachers by Ray Ham, M.Ed. Copyright 1989, 2001


The author is foutunate in that he found a teacher with dyslexia who tutors children with dyslexia. All of the illustrations in the 28 page, professionally bound handbook are by the teacher and students with dyslexia.

The intended audience for WHAT'S THIS THING CALLED DYSLEXIA,
is the elementary school child who finds reading difficult; thus, the purpose of a read-aloud approach. Also, this approach allows the adult reader an opportunity to discuss the concepts in the handbook with the child.

Besides imparting information to the child about dyslexia, the theme throughout the handbook is one of encouragement. The author is not teaching a feel-good-and-everything-will- be-OK approach; but he does believe that positive reinforcement, a huge dose of love, and encouragement from parents, friends and teachers will assist children with dyslexia in developing their full potential.

The end of the handbook has this saying: I MAY HAVE DYSLEXIA BUT DYSLEXIA DOES NOT HAVE ME.

With a little bit of creative thought and discussion with others, this saying can be used in a variety of ways to encourage children with dyslexia.

If you are interested in getting pricing information for this handbook, please email rayham@sbcglobal.net with dyslexia as the subject line. SORRY! LIMITED TO THE USA.

Subject: Remove the problems of Visual Dyslexia


Author:
John A. Hayes
[Edit]
Date Posted: 11:46:41 12/09/07 Sun
The visual problems associated with visual dyslexia are individual specific and varied but all result in difficulty seeing and comprehending the printed word. Some visual dyslexics have visual problems that involve motion such as words falling off the page, words appearing to be behind a waterfall or words that seem to be jumping all of which make reading a battle. Other visual dyslexics have a pattern where letters are obscured and missing that make reading similar to playing "wheel of fortune". Some other common visual dyslexic problems are letter transpositions and reversals.

The individualistic problems suggested the theory that individualistic solutions of filtering a specific wavelength (or color) of light generated from personal evaluations was needed to correct these problems. While some success could be claimed for the "is this color better than that color" method, the failure rate prohibited having any guarantee and left many clients paying without receiving much benefit. ( there never was any reason to believe that only one color was involved for any particular dyslexic)

With the discovery that a finite list of specific wavelengths of light were causing all of the visual dyslexia problems it became possible to develop the See Right Dyslexia Glasses and filter out all of the wavelengths involved that cause all of the visual problems. This eliminates the need for a personal evaluation.

This also results in several improvements for visual dyslexia problems. The elimination of the need for a personal evaluation not only eliminates the cost of the evaluation but also allows the See Right Dyslexia Glasses to be sold on the Internet. It also becomes possible to offer a money back guarantee.

The See Right Dyslexia Glasses are sold at www.dyslexiaglasses.com . I refuse to overstate the claim for the See Right dyslexia Glasses. They are not for all dyslexics because most dyslexics do not have visual problems that make reading difficult and therefore won't be helped by dyslexia glasses. The See Right Dyslexia Glasses successfully remove any described visual dyslexia problem that makes reading difficult.

I used the phrase "described visual problems" because if someone can describe their visual problem they know when it is removed. Removing described visual problems is the standard I use for the See Right Dyslexia Glasses.

Dyslexic Volunteers Needed For Dyslexia
Research Study

The project, Developmental Phonological Dyslexia: Neural
Mechanisms, headed by Dr. Richard E. Frye, M.D., Ph.D., F.A.A.P., of
the University of Texas, is looking for volunteers willing to participate in a
research study investigating brain activation patterns in the dyslexic brain
with non-invasive magnetic source imaging techniques. The aim of this
research study is to obtain a better understanding of the various ways
dyslexic brains process different types of words.
Participants, both with and without dyslexia, should be right-handed,
between the ages of 18-40 with no known history of psychiatric disorders.
After a brief screening questionnaire, selected participants will undergo an
evaluation of their IQ, language and attention skills. Brain imaging with
magnetoencephalography (MEG) and a magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI) scan will also be done. All testing will occur at the University of
Texas Health Science Center in Houston. Completion of all of the testing
will probably require return visits. There are no known risks associated
with this study, but individuals with claustrophobia could be uncomfortable
in the MRI scanner.
Participants will be compensated for their time and their parking expenses.

EFA Focus for Kids is composed of essential fatty acids (High-EPA balanced blend of omega oils).

It is based on scientically controlled classroom research conducted in elementary schools which demonstrated dramatic improvement in reading and spelling achievement in the group of children receiving the specially formulated essential fatty acids compared with those receiving placebo treatment.

The unique benefits result from optimization of the ratios of the essential fatty acids by molecular and fractional distillation techniques.

Each daily dose is provided in a child and parent-friendly aluminum lined packet containing smooth creamy tropical fruit-flavored liquid.
This packaging protects the fragile omega oils from oxidation and prevents spills.

EFA-Focus.com website provides links to published peer-reviewed research studies, and glossary explaining terms related to benefits of high EPA blends of essential fatty acids in learning disorders

VOICEYE was introduced in the year 2005 and since then, persons with visual disabilities and those who support and care about them have given us many positive and negative feedbacks. They have taught us the various potential of VOICEYE and advised us on improvements by giving us their ideas and suggestions.
In South Korea, we have successfully launched the VOICEYE solution in schools for learning disabilities, universities with special education, publishing companies, state run corporations, local newspapers and others. We are confident to say with our experience that it is an effective tool for information access in the U.S. as well. Our continuous effort to have the VOICEYE symbol incorporated on all printed matter takes time and we feel that with every person/organization we come in to contact, we are taking one step closer to realize this goal.
We wish is to contact anyfacilities and schools interested in VOICEYE to set up a program to test the software/hardware solution before its official launch in the U.S.
Our U.S. staff is ready at hand to provide a VOICEYE demonstration. Please contact us for further information regarding the Voiceye field study or demonstration. Thank you for your time and interest.

A Workbook for Dyslexics is specifically designed for the dyslexic. It contains 44 lessons with exercises and word lists, designed to gradually teach the student to decode words using phonics, rules and memory cues. The lessons go far beyond what is taught in most schools, and is precisely what a dyslexic needs to become a proficient reader. The lessons gradually build up to the next topic, offering repetition for reinforcement. Constant repetition is key for a dyslexic.

Includes 44 lessons with exercises and an answer key. The lessons address:
phonics / sounds / rules of spelling / word decoding tips
letter reversals / homophones / common mistakes

Also included are 5 lists of the 500 most commonly used words in the English language, in order of frequency.

Spend as little as 20 minutes a day with your child to raise his or her reading level.

I recently came across a company that uses one tone multi-sensory approaches in working with students with Dyslexia and Dysgraphia. It has helped my son immensely. They have been trained and founded back in 1986 using the Orton Gillingham methods to work with students. These methods give my son the strategies to help in all his studies. I am so pleased and wanted to pass it on. They are located in Tustin, California. The name is The Extra Edge on Newport Avenue. There phone is 714-838-2343. Hope this helps another family like it is helping mine!
