Here is a workbook with excellent, large print reading materials for the adult
that are more advanced than the stories in Volume 1. These stories are both
practical and informative, and they relate to everyday experiences or are
factual with high interest. This makes therapy more pertinent to a patient’s
daily living and thus more motivating.
These materials also have an application for a patient needing a hierarchy of
exercises for attention/concentration difficulties, immediate recall of new
information, or visual field neglect. With their own copy of the workbook,
patients are able to practice regularly between sessions. Progress is then more
readily visible as they advance to the lengthier, more complex stories,
eventually attempting some of their previous reading interests.
Workbook sections include:
- Thinking About Words
- Following Directions
- Who/what
- Stories in Part
- Short Stories—General/Factual
- More Stories
