All students deserve the instruction that will meet their needs. Students who are still developing their reading skills need multi-sensory instruction. Multi-sensory teaching techniques stimulate the brain in a variety of ways so that each sensory system becomes more developed and higher functioning. This improves essential functions of the brain such as listening skills, movement, vision, tactile recognition, and conceptualization. Students will use the magnetic letters. the squish and squeeze sensory beads, the sensory sight word magnets, the tactile letters, the touch and read phonics word and the sand to trace letters, phonic sounds, sight words and vocabulary. These are all foundation skills that they need to master. The reading flash library has visual cues to help them associate a phonics sound to a picture. When students use their senses to learn they make connections to the area of the brain that stores this knowledge. They create files that help them improve their reading skills. Please help me get the materials I need to provide multi-sensory instruction to students who are so eager to learn but need their senses to flourish.
