Reversing Reversals for Struggling Readers

Letter and word reversals

The Reversing Reversals Series is Dr. Warren's most popular publications, and these digital downloads work great with any reading program. These publications begin with building the core cognitive skills that are needed for learning reading and math skills.  Later workbooks help to develop visual processing, tracking skills, and more.  Designed specifically for students with dyslexia, this series is a great place to begin with discouraged learners. 


    Strategies for Letter Reversals:

    Letter reversals worksheets can be used to illustrate multisensory strategies, provide fun game-like activities that exercise directionality, right and left discrimination as well as word and letter formation.

    Visual Discrimination and Directionality Activities

    Visual Discrimination and Directionality Activities Is a digital download that is also usable on a computer or iPad.  It was created for students with weak visual discrimination (e.g., discriminating between letters, numbers and symbols that look similar) and directionality skills (letter and word reversals), so proficiency can be accomplished while students are having fun.
