Description:... This title provides guidance on the learning difficulties faced by the dyslexic child participating in Physical Education in a primary mainstream setting. It offers its readers effective teaching strategies to develop pupils' skills along with examples of good practice. Much research has focused on dyslexia and co-ordination. This book examines the literature and provides a framework to support pupils with dyslexia, not only during PE lessons but in less structured environments, for example during break time when pupils are likely to be involved in physical activities.
