LAP provides educators with an important program for relieving students of reading,
attention, and memory learning challenges. The ideal resource for K-1
st beginning reading training or
resolving learning differences for students with IEPs.
LAP is the ideal clinic tool for teaching reading and spelling by improving attention,
memory and speed of processing for all ages. LAP provides for home-practice to support therapy
sessions or for distance learning application.
LAP provides parents with the ideal program for improving their child or youth’s reading skill
development. Specially sequenced exercises provide efficient and effective introduction of the key
reading skills for academic success.
LAP provides memory development programming for individuals with memory loss from
aging, head-injury, stroke, cognitive fog, or dementia. The LAP for MEMORY program utilizes the LAP
program plus special exercises for speech and language therapists, disability therapists, and care-givers to improve memory skills for adults.
LAP uses advanced research information to relieve the frustration and embarrassment
caused by dyslexic reading symptoms. No more sounding-out words. No more relying on
accommodations to engage in academics. Reading fluency, comprehension, and strong vocabulary skills
are developed with the LAP.
LAP activities are effective for children, youth, and adults who would benefit from reading
improvement: increased reading vocabulary, spelling accuracy, reading speed, and comprehension. LAP
provides a bonus of increasing attention, memory and speed of processing through brain-intriguing
exercises.
It feels like we have been climbing this ladder for years to understand reading and the brain. Now we are treated to a good understanding of what happens in our brain for learning to read and learning in general. The LAP is designed to use that knowledge to activate the pathways in the brain to create effective, fluent readers and learners.
While LAP develops beginning reading skills, relieves dyslexic learning styles, and improves learning skills, it really improves memory, attention, fluency, speed of processing, and comprehension for success with all learners. This systematic, organized, delivery of target activation tasks for brain function, provides every learner with improved skills and performance in learning. LAP is truly learning redefined.
