[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You could also try listening to audio books while following along with a written version.  Kindle does "active immersion audio" which highlights the text while it is being read.

My kid with dyslexia really enjoyed doing that and I think it helped a lot. [/quote]

I thought the new Kindle (Fire) did away with that and it was only available on the older versions.[/quote]

The newest Fire at our house is less than 6 months old and it does that. Audible is supplying the audio. It's not cheap, but it works like a dream.[/quote]

We find Immersion Reading and Whispersync great for our 10 year old. The app works on android and kindle. We can switch between reading on slow speed and when he gets tired or if we're in the car he listens at much at much faster speeds. Having multiple ways to absorb content has improved his understanding that he really is very smart.  His verbal comprehension is about 4 grades above his reading.
