Montessori classrooms are color coded according to subject, reading level, and so on. I never realized how much this helps children compensate for reading problems. When I would tutor in special education classes, children with dyslexia were given their lessons in color codes.
Montessori cleverly presents the alphabet letters on pink for consonants and blue for vowels. Newest research shows that children can read better if paper is colored. The glare of white paper affects children with reading problems the most.
Reading by the Colors is an enlightening book that will help children overcome reading disabilities.
