When I first started working with Lorna, she was very shy and didnt really enjoy reading. Her class teacher told me she was very quiet in class. During our lessons together we spent lots of time reading books. We also played word games to help with her spelling and writing. As time went on, Lorna began to relax and became more confident. She realized that reading and writing could be lots of fun! Lorna even wrote a book by herself about Beauty and the Beast. She also drew some lovely pictures in it. What great progress! Her favorite reading book was called Alices Adventures in Wonderland. She was very happy every time we sat down to read it! Her class teacher is very pleased with how well Lorna is doing.
