Orton-Gillingham is literacy instruction for everyone. It is a curriculum designed by a neurologist and a linguist using a trauma-informed perspective and multi-sensory learning tools.
Learn skills that can be applied in a classroom setting or with one-to-one instruction. These techniques will prepare teachers/tutors/educators/parents to help anyone who struggles with reading and writing.
Level 2 explores Primary literacy with a focus on:
- consonant diagraphs, long vowels, vowel/consonant combinations)
- syllables/syllabication (magic-e/vowel team syllables, monster/robin/pony division)
- spelling rules (Miss Gruff Will Buzz, 1-1-1 Doubling/Final E)
- common prefixes/suffixes
- parts of a sentence (noun, verb, prepositions, adverbs, adjectives etc)
