How Does Cellfield Work?
-
In the last ten years, brain imaging technology has made it possible to see brains working while a child is reading.
-
Normal readers use their left half of their brain in a compact, interconnected and highly efficient way.
-
Poor readers use both sides of their brains in a disconnected and highly inefficient way.
-
In early stages of reading, none of this matters much.
-
In later stages of reading, it matters much… very much.
-
Reading fluently with good comprehension needs many things to happen very quickly.
-
Our eyes need to see words coming in peripheral vision, before we actually look at them.
-
Seeing always comes first. Sound structure needs to follow almost instantaneously.
-
By the time words come into central vision, fluent readers already understand what they are reading.
-
They use high speed scanning for checking, not reading.
-
Cellfield uses brain plasticity and clever computer science to synchronise information and deliver it directly where it is needed, quickly and efficiently.
-
Only then can children recognise words in peripheral vision, and have spare processing capacity in working memory to think about meaning.
-
It is this increased processing capacity that makes it possible for Cellfield children to make the transition into fluent reading.
