9. What core challenges does the Let's Fly Reading Programme address, and how does it improve reading skills?
The Let's Fly Programme is specifically designed to tackle a range of fundamental challenges that impede the development of reading. These challenges include poor phonological awareness, slow processing speeds, weak short-term and visual memory, poor orthographic processing, and insufficient language skills. By focusing on these areas, the programme employs structured and repetitive exercises that enhance a child's ability to process and remember information. This methodical approach leads to significant improvements in reading fluency and basic spelling skills, equipping children with the tools they need to succeed in literacy.
