Reading and Comprehension with Images

For some children, reading and comprehending a written text full of notions, narrations and descriptions, can constitute an insurmountable obstacle, often caused by a deficient in the visuo-perceptual field. The goal of the program presented in the book is to favor the reading-writing learning processes through the decoding and interpretation of images, which facilitates the construction of coherent mental representations, supporting attention span and the working memory.

The training is articulated in three sections of increasing difficulty, which can be completed separately, each one consisting of 15 worksheets:
• Section 1 – Detail analysis: visual discrimination exercises with simple images;
• Section 2 – Working memory activation: observation and understanding of complex images;
• Section 3 – Integration of verbal and iconic codes: attributing meaning to characters and context.

The volume is enriched with stickers and colourful chards that act as further motivational reinforcement.
