Educator Appraisal
Stairway to Spelling is a game and a multisensory learning resource used to improve reading ability. I liked that it's tailored to children with dyslexia, shows clear progression, and that it's multisensory. I didn't like that it can be time consuming for some students, and requires a commitment from both teachers and parents.
