My Project

SpEd teachers are seeing more and more students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other processing disorders. There are very specific ways to support these students in order for them to make gains with their reading and writing skills. These Orton-Gillingham resources and other books will help me provide this instruction for these special students.

The wonderful thing is that the information and lessons in these resources will help all students with reading disabilities make gains.

Our students are now learning with a blend of in person and online learning. These lessons can be used in the classroom or modified and provided through video lessons or independent learning activities.
