The "Charlotte Mason Method" is a specific teaching method parents can use to help their children with dyslexia. This video describes the method, which suggests that parents read books to children well into elementary school -- often at around age 10, but the age is not as important as the readiness of the child. Though children should be encouraged to read on their own, parents should also continue to read aloud to them until their reading skills improve.
To encourage better oral narrations, parents may want to stick to shorter passages. Some children may simply have trouble retaining longer passages, so breaking them up could greatly help. Shafer also recommends giving children one or two key words to listen for, and include them in their narration. The Charlotte Mason Method can also be used in other subjects, such as math, art, scripture, picture study, music study, and even singing.
