The Indomitable Dinosaur Builder (and How She Overcame Her Phonological Deficit and Learned To Read Instructions, and Other Things).

Wise, Barbara W.

Journal of Special Education, v35 n3 p134-44 Fall 2001

This paper presents the case study of an 11-year-old girl with a deficit in phonological awareness without difficulties in naming speed. It describes a successful phonologically based remedial program as well as the collaboration and involvement of the child's mother, who provided daily practice sessions. Follow-up 7 months after therapy indicates achievement of another grade level in reading. (Contains references.) (DB)
