According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Accordingly, A multi-sensory phonics learning apparatus (100) and method, particularly suited for dyslexic children, is disclosed. In a first embodiment, the apparatus includes a tray (10) with a sand-filled drawer (12) for tactile tracing. A slot (18) receives color-coded stick-on tiles (20)-red for vowels, green for consonants-to form words. Each tile features a character cutout (22), a black rear surface, a ferromagnetic strip, and two auxiliary slots that create a visible "sand tunnel" visual effect when traced. Neodymium magnets embedded in the slot walls secure the tiles during use. An angled picture card frame (24) (50-70) holds a visual prompt. Integrated storage (28) houses all components. In a second embodiment, the apparatus comprises two independent units: a portable storage Drawer and a separate interactive Tray onto which sand is poured. Numeral tiles with bluish-violet/orange parity-based color-coding are optionally provided. The apparatus integrates visual, tactile, auditory, and kinaesthetic modalities to improve phonemic awareness, spelling, reading, and numeracy skills."
