This handbook describes an evidence-based reading and language teaching programme designed for children with Down syndrome. The programme complements regular literacy classroom instruction with individualised teaching of sight words, letter sounds, phoneme awareness and book reading, together with the teaching of vocabulary. It was evaluated in a landmark randomised controlled intervention trial in primary schools in the United Kingdom.
This practical handbook provides detailed guidance, video illustrations, assessment forms and teaching resources to help teachers and teaching assistants implement an evidence-based teaching programme designed for children with Down syndrome. The handbook is written by the team who designed and evaluated the intervention in a major research study in UK primary schools.
