Orton-Gillingham Program

Orton-Gillingham Program

Orton-Gillingham is a highly structured approach that breaks reading and spelling down into smaller skills involving letters and sounds, and then building on these skills over time. It also was the first approach to use multi-sensory teaching strategies to teach reading, which is considered extremely effective for teaching students with dyslexia. This means that educators use sight, hearing, touch, and movement to help students connect and learn the concepts being taught. Spring Grove has 23 trained teachers and instructional aides who are providing OG strategies to TK-3rd grade students.
