To develop reading competence in students with special educational needs, you need a wealth of materials that facilitate the learning of reading. The visual materials in this volume have been compiled to help your students build an expectation of meaning from the text. This supports comprehension reading. The exercises focus on basic vocabulary and are simply structured. Students match individual words and appropriate sentences to specific situational images or connect sentences and image segments with each other. Reading is practiced step by step: from the word level to the sentence level and from the sentence level to the text level. The material is suitable for differentiation, allowing you to address the individual learning levels of the students.
