Hi,

 

I am needing information on these two programs. Has anyone used these that can make a comparison for me?

We are looking for a program to help Dyslexic ds learn to spell.

Thank you

REad the book "The Gift of Dyslexia" It will tell you how to help your DS.  It helps you understand how they think and teach a student how to retrain themselves not to get frustrated, then it will teach you to help them with the words they need help with the most.  Really a good book!

I am trying Megawords this year though, not for my dyslexic child but for another one who just can't spell.
