In this Orton-Gillingham-based course, students will learn structured literacy skills, focusing on phonemic awareness, decoding, spelling, and reading fluency. Topics include phonics, syllable types, morphology, and comprehension strategies. The class is structured with short, focused lessons that include direct instruction, interactive practice, and review. I will use a multisensory approach, combining visual, auditory, and kinesthetic techniques to reinforce learning. My teaching style is hands-on and student-centered, focusing on active participation. Learners will interact with me through guided lessons, one-on-one check-ins, and group activities. Expect to engage in games, interactive slides, quizzes, and discussions to reinforce concepts. Each lesson will include opportunities for immediate practice and feedback to ensure mastery.

In this course, Canva Whiteboard and Pear Deck will be used to enhance interactivity, engagement, and personalized learning. Here's how:
Canva Whiteboard:
Interactive Practice: Canva Whiteboard allows us to create dynamic, interactive lessons where students can participate in activities like drawing sound-letter connections, identifying syllables, or practicing word sorting.
Pear Deck:
Real-Time Assessment: Pear Deck will be used for quizzes, polls, and formative assessments. I can instantly see how students are progressing with specific concepts like decoding or syllable identification, which helps me provide immediate feedback.
Interactive Slides: Students will interact with content directly on the slides, such as by choosing the correct answer, drawing a response, or highlighting key text. This keeps students engaged and gives them hands-on practice.
Together, these tools will create a blended, interactive learning environment that allows for immediate feedback, peer collaboration, and customized learning experiences. They will support different learning styles and make lessons more engaging and accessible for all students.
