Title: Supporting Struggling and Dyslexic Readers through Structured Literacy
Date & Time: Thursday, February 26, 8:15 AM-9:15 AM
Location: Ruby Room

About the Session:
Move beyond theory and dive into powerful Orton-Gillingham strategies that rewire the brain for reading success! This interactive session demonstrates practical, research-validated techniques you can implement immediately with struggling readers and students with dyslexia. You'll learn multisensory phoneme-grapheme mapping, strategic word coding, and systematic syllabication to build automatic decoding skills. We'll explore engaging fluency methods through timed practice and multiple text readings, alongside comprehension strategies like visualization techniques, text marking for close reading, and graphic organizers. Experience instructional sequences that transform struggling readers into confident, capable learners through structured literacy aligned with the Science of Reading.
