Abstract

Reading and writing are complex skills that require effective instruction and practice. The main aim of this chapter is to outline some common assumptions that are made about how these skills develop. This includes notions regarding the effect that the development of spoken language has on literacy development, the impact of different methods of instruction on reading and writing, and the contested nature of dyslexia.
