Hi Tim, We met earlier this year in Maryland and you took my business card. We talked about tape assisted readings to help with fluency. I have been experimenting with tape-assisted readings with some of my students. Two have made huge gains, a third, has improved, but not nearly as much. Naturally I am thrilled about the two kids who made huge gains, but I am upset about the third student. I am trying to figure out what to try next. I was wondering if reading level mattered herewith the tape recorded books. This particular student is dyslexic with severe memory issues and ADD. He did make gains...the first change in his reading level for two years, BUT he didn't improve in leaps and bounds. In reflecting upon this, I wonder if the speed of my recording needs to be slowed down (or maybe speeded up???) or maybe I need to find something closer to his level... Do you have any thoughts on this? Once again, thank you for all your hard work on behalf of students! I have been a big fan of yours for several years now!
