Abstract

This paper is out to investigate Parental Involvement in the Acquisition of Reading Competencies by Children Living with Dyslexia in Fako Division South West Region of Cameroon. The key issues focuses on the acquisition of Reading Competencies by Dyslexic Children as an important autonomy skill. From this, the principal objective of the study was to find out the link between parental involvement and the acquisition of reading competencies by children living with dyslexia. The main research question asked was: ‘’ To what extent does parental involvement influence the acquisition of reading competencies in children living with dyslexia.’’ Hypotheses were formulated and relevant theories reviewed. This study was both quantitative and qualitative research. A quasi -experimental design (a one group pretest posttest design) was used on a sample of 15 participants (comprised of 5 pupils, 5 teachers and 5parents). Data was collected using questionnaire and interview guides. The data collected was analyzed using the Pearson correlation index. A sample of 5 pupils, 5 teachers and 5 parents were examined using questionnaire and interview. The data collected was analyzed using the Pearson correlation index. The result obtained from the hypothesis showed that there is a significant relationship between parental affection and the acquisition of reading competencies by children living with dyslexia as determined by the correlation index of = 0.911. From this result it was concluded that there is a significant relationship between parental involvement and the acquisition of reading competencies by children living with dyslexia.Consequently, a number of recommendations were made to policy makers of primary education on how to involve parents in the education of their children especially those with reading difficulties. Suggestions were also made for similar and further research to be undertaken in other towns and regions in Cameroon and in other parts of the world.
