Lucid provides comprehensive assessment of literacy from age 11 to 24. These programs are mostly used by RTLB, RTLit and Senco staff within schools.
The majority of students on the dyslexic spectrum have difficulties with reading that are generally a result of difficulties with certain aspects of cognition. The student may experience challenges with one or more of the following:
1. Phonological Awareness
2. Sequential Memory
3. Visual Memory/processing
4. Organisation
5. Working Memory
6. Auditory Discrimination
The Lucid programs are used to identify the students strengths and weaknesses. This provides a solid platform from which to develop an IEP.
