Its my understanding that visual learners are natural speed readers and once they learn the reading struggles go away (they need to be reading at least 3rd grade level) and comprehension goes way up (assuming they are seeing the video in their heads, if not you need to teach them that first). Can anyone recommend a kid friendly speed reading program? After reading about it I realized this is what I have always done, I didn't really see the words, I'm watching the video in my head and found books way more entertaining then TV but I'm clueless on how to intentionally teach it to my 11 yr old. Its something I have always done.
