This 1 time Orton-Gillingham reading, writing, and spelling class studies long 'O'. It's for beginning readers, 5-8, with prior letter experience, struggling readers needing a strong phonetic base, or readers wanting to review long 'O'.

Class Experience

This one-time class uses the Orton Gillingham approach to study long 'O', with the Consonant-'O'-Consonant Silent-e pattern, (as in rode, bone, robe).  It is for the beginning reader, aged 5-8, that has prior experience with all letters of the alphabet, or for a struggling reader that needs reinforcement to build a strong phonetic base, or for the reader that wants a review of long 'O'. 

There are five one time classes available to study the long vowels A, E, I, O, and U.  Each long vowel...

Students will learn about the sound of long 'O', and read, spell and write words that have the long 'O' sound. Students will learn phonics and strengthen their reading, spelling, and writing skills using the Orton-Gillingham multi-sensory approach.

I'm a licensed elementary classroom teacher.  I spent most of my years as a homeroom teacher in 1st and 2nd grade.  I have a master's degree in literacy with a focus on grades K-5.  I'm a certified Orton-Gillingham instructor and have worked as a reading tutor for students in grades K-3.
