0rton-Gillingham
By Leslie

Clip to ScrapBook   
Orton-Gillingham has been around for a very long time. I would think that you would have atleast been introduced to it in college. There is a program called Wilson Training that has become very popular. It is actually Orton,
but they "sell" you the materials. Our school district here in SC is just beginning to train teachers in this multi-sensory, phonics based method of reading. Wilson actually came here and gave workshops. Orton is also being ofered at a private school for kids with LD this summer for 3 graduate credits. They do have a web site for Wilson Reading System training. Boy, doesn't this emphasis
how we have to keep current in our education? I'm sure it is very frustrating, but if you showc some knowledge and willingness to learn, you shouldn't have a problem. Good Luck!
