Mastering Dyslexia – Supporting Syllables

Description

The Mastering Dyslexia Support resource pack is a specialised toolkit designed for educators, intervention specialists, and parents supporting children with dyslexia or phonological awareness difficulties.

This two-part resource focuses on rhyming and syllable awareness—critical components in early literacy development. Both areas are foundational for decoding, spelling, and fluent reading, especially for learners who struggle with processing sounds in language.

Key Features:

• Builds Phonological and Phonemic Awareness
  Enables children to hear, break down, and manipulate sounds through structured, multisensory activities.

• Improves Decoding and Reading Fluency
  Teaching children to segment words into rhymes or syllables supports smoother, more accurate reading.

• Supports Spelling and Writing
  Recognising common patterns in rhymes and syllable chunks improves spelling accuracy and word construction.

• Boosts Confidence and Word Recognition
  Familiarity with sound structures enhances pronunciation, vocabulary, and reading confidence.

• Engaging, Multisensory Learning
  Includes practical games and movement-based strategies to make learning enjoyable and accessible for dyslexic learners.

Activities Include:

• Rhyming Songs and Chants

• Word Family Sorting and Memory Matching

• Syllable Clapping, Sorting, and Hopscotch

• Listening and Blending Games (e.g. Mystery Syllable)

Perfect for use in classrooms, small group interventions, or home learning settings, this resource pack provides everything you need to help learners build a strong foundation in literacy.
