FIX Long and Short Vowels for DYSLEXIC and Struggling Readers

These drills will teach the long and short vowels so that they will stick long term. You will also be able to print out a FREE word list that includes all the long and short vowels as well as instructions and additional information. These drills are perfect for children that have struggled with the long and short vowels as well as children that have been diagnosed with dyslexia, auditory processing disorder, visual processing disorders, or other learning disabilities. Being unable to decode words with the long and short vowels in them is incredibly frustrating - these drills will end that frustration.

Children with dyslexia, auditory processing disorder, visual processing challenges, ADHD, ASD, and other learning disabilities often struggle to learn the long and short vowels. Most often, they fixate on the short vowels. They read the long vowels as short vowels over and over again. Pail is read as pal, make is mak, tape is tap, proceed is proced...and on and on.

This drill will fix what I call, "long and short vowel confusion." This is how to teach the long and short vowels when the traditional methods have failed.
