Meeting the Needs of Students with Dyslexia: Librarians, Teachers, and Students Working Together Hand-in-Hand
Huffman, Stephanie; Shaw, Erin; Thompson, Amy
Reading Improvement, v57 n4 p161-172 Dec 2020
Dyslexia is characterized by difficulties with accurate and/or fluent word recognition and by poor spelling and decoding abilities. The analysis of the Response to Intervention Model, current research in the fields of dyslexia and information literacy and the American Association of School Librarians Standards Framework for Learners, resulted in the creation of the LAFE Model. The LAFE Model comprises four access points for the school librarian to interact with the student and/or the Dyslexia Interventionist (L look/listen, A assistance/accessibility, F format/fit, and E engagement/environment. The model was designed to provide a continuous loop of feedback and ideas to support students in the reading development process.
