Reynor, Ellen (2018) How important is language development for skilled reading? Exploring the relationship between language processes and reading skills for children with dyslexia. REACH Journal of Special Needs Education in Ireland, 31 (1). pp. 38-53. ISSN 0790-8695
Abstract
It is well documented that phonological difficulties are a recurring challenge
for those with dyslexia. However, there is less focus on the important
meaning-related processes associated with skilled reading such as language
skills and reading comprehension. This paper draws on some of the results of
a doctoral study investigating the reading and cognitive profiles of children
with dyslexia to highlight the continuing need for a focus on the development
language skills for these children.
