About this listen

Literacy expert Lorraine Hammond explains the difference between the skills of reading and spelling. If your child is able to read a word and/or sentence but has challenges with spelling, this will help to explain why.

Also the way in which parents were taught at school has changed significantly from the way children are being taught now.

The scientific research around how our brain actually retains and retrieves information has informed changes in teaching strategies in the classroom. For parents who want a greater understanding of what all the fuss is about over the term 'explicit instruction', this episode will answer those questions.
