Book Review

I went  through the journel" English Teaching Professional " April 2011 issue. It is one of the leading practical magazine for English Language Teachers at world wide.It aiso special forIndian  and Sri Lankan  edition published by the BRITISH COUNCUIL, Pavilion Publishing and Macmillan Publishers India Ltd.                   

                     I came across an article'Learning Disability'. It is the 5th article in which the auther Lesley Lanir  focuses  on the factors affect reading acquisition.He identifies the areas of this problem as phonological perceptions ,serial memory, working memory andphonological short term memory. Poor fhonological perception reduces the quality of verbal input.As a result wo
enter the short term memory with distortions and omisssions, sound substitutions ,swapping and reversal  etc.


                  Reading  this article i got some idea about how to  go about with one of the problamatic students in my class.,  it was helpful reading that journel

eversals.

I visited the site http://www.cubeez.com.%20i/t is a site for fun. Merely a painting page .A picture of a courtier was given to paint .I  coloured it. It took only a few minutes. The painting needed accurate work. I could do and undo the clouring , it was interesting.May be this site attracting the kids more than me.For the kids to learn computer keys and spedd more time in computer this will help.Concerning the educational focus. A narration can be written using the picture. Any one can work in this page.
