Key reading provided with a link to 4 shared (scanned documents)

I require this paper to be compact, targeted and include critical analysis.
Structure:
1. Contextualise dyslexia within population, Legislative Framework and classroom. Key pieces of Legislation to be mentioned are the Warnock Report, United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (Salamanca Statement) and Equality Legislation. What is the purpose and outcome of this essay?
2. Discuss and analyse appropriate strategies for identifying and meeting the needs of children with Dyslexia and Dyscalculia. For e.g., a child with dyslexia may experience visual impairment or mix up alphabets in a word or words in a sentence – these ae driven by issues related to working memory and here you can talk about phonological or orthographic aspects of dyslexia. The teaching strategies to address these may include multi-sensory approaches, structured and sequential teaching, using reading slots, reading the questions out loud, and programmes such as toe-by-toe to build word banks for the dyslexic child.
3. Contextualise these inclusive teaching strategies within the English National Primary Curriculum 2014, talking specifically about the inclusive classroom. (Inclusive Classroom and Visual, Auditory and Kinaesthetic Approaches).
4. Analysis of Inclusive Teaching Strategies for children with Dyslexia and Dyscalculia (Working memory, and how these teaching strategies inform addressing barriers to learning for children with Dyslexia/Dyscalculia).
5. What implications does this have for a Primary School Teacher in England where Dyslexia is the most common Special Educational Need a teacher will come across? What implications does this have for how they teach and help children with Dyslexia and Dyscalculia overcome barriers to learning and access the National Curriculum?
