Biography

Sally Raymond DipSpLD(Hornsby), PGDip(SEN) is an experienced dyslexia tutor and trainer living in Cornwall.

"...all the pupils loved the games in this book and were fully engaged with their learning whilst playing. Many children begged to play 'just one more time,' and all were keen for me to share the games with their class teachers and parents so that they could play them again. Armed with instructions, photocopied play sheets and dice, the children returned to class motivated and eager to share the games with their peers. By the end of the week, I had teachers and parents alike commenting on their success. Their simplicity also means there is virtually no work or cost involved once you have purchased the book. Just what ever teacher needs, then." - Saira Pester, Special Children Magazine
