Abstract:
No single intervention will have as dramatic effect on a student’s future as a solid foundation in literacy. Examples of an evidence-based literacy instruction for letter-sound correspondence (LCS) and sight words, for individuals with severe disabilities, ASD, and CCN will be highlighted and discussed using case studies and videos.
Discussion to include the major elements of the study design in research to-date, the authors’ conclusions, and how these inform possible implications for practice.
