This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
This professional development will train me to teach reading by using Orton-Gillingham: a proven, multi-sensory approach. IMSE (Institute for Multi-Sensory Education) is accredited through the International Dyslexia Association (IDA) as an Accredited Program. IMSE abides by all of IDA's Knowledge and Practice Standards for Teachers of Reading.
The Orton Gillingham method makes reading easier for ALL children, not just those with dyslexia.
When used in the classroom, Orton-Gillingham makes all children better readers.
I believe that schools across the country would have fewer struggling readers if they used this approach See, Hear, Feel the Difference with IMSE.
