Orton-Gillingham：拼字、閱讀、寫作 • 計算障礙：基礎數學

Please contact me to set up a schedule that is convenient for both of us. 

Please also see this same class set up to pay for a block of 4 classes at a time for Orton-Gillingham and Dyscalculia. 

Orton-Gillingham:
Lessons are Orton-Gillingham based. Orton-Gillingham Instruction ~ 

Learners will gain strategies, learn rules about patterns and grammar....in which to develop and/or strengthen skills in reading and spelling, as well as reading comprehension, and reading and writing fluency skills. It will also provide learners with practice for oral reading and oral language development.

“Phonemic Awareness is the ability to hear and manipulate the sounds in spoken words and the understanding that spoken words and syllables are made up of sequences of speech sounds”(Yopp, 1992; see References).

•Structured, Sequential, Cumulative, and Flexible 
•Language Based 
•Multi-Sensory 
•Reading, spelling, and writing instruction for people with dyslexia and other learning disabilities, English Language Learners. 

Each class will begin with oral/auditory warm-ups with a focus on listening identifying phonemes and sounds, for sounds in words, identifying sound/phoneme placement, and similarities and differences between words. 

Each class will be a cumulative review of past spelling and language rules and phonemes from previous classes, in addition to new material. 

Learners will practice reading and spelling words from previous weeks. They will read passages with review and new patterns, and answer related questions . Sentences with review and new patterns will be dictated to learners for spelling and sentence writing practice.  

New material will be presented during each class. However, the pace is based on student needs and grasp of material. Students will be assessed initially and through observation during class time. 

Dyscalculia-Math Foundational Skills-Number Sense

Dyscalculia in children often involves struggling with one or more of the following:
•Simple mathematics - memorizing and applying math facts: addition and multiplication
•The order of operations
•The ability to visualize a small or large quantity
•To mentally connect a number with a size or quantity (number sense)
•Learning to tell time, dates, months. 

I will use the information you provide about your child and appropriate number sense and numeration. This will help me get to know your child, as well strengths and weaknesses. 

Lessons and activities from leaders in dyscalculia research will be tailored and individualized to meet your learner’s needs. 

Lessons will be:

•Structured and Incremental 

•Math manipulatives and/or Virtual math tools. 

•Focused on verbal reasoning - Learners can  “talk through” math problems and concepts. Using written and spoken words can help learners understand the basic concepts.
