REACH Conference & Resources

I was at the conference Working Memory, Executive Functioning & Learning Difficulties:
Linking Research and Practice put on by REACH OG Centre.  I worked for REACH as an Orton-Gillingham (OG) tutor from 2007-2008 and was very excited to attend their conference.  It was one of the best conference I have attended in a long time.  The topic and presenters were excellent and I walked away feeling inspired and looking forward to continuing my work with students with Learning Differences. I also purchased a couple resources I wanted to share as great tools to add to the classroom or resource teacher's bookshelf.

• Dyslexia: A Practitioner's Handbook, 5th edition

             By: Gavin Reid (one of the presenters)

• 100 Ideas for Primary Teachers: Supporting Children with Dyslexia

             By: Gavin Reid and Shannon Green
