My Orton-Gillingham Based Classroom


                                                           


Hi there! It has been far too long since I wrote a blog post! Life has been quite busy with moving to a new state, planning a wedding, and going back into the classroom full time!


 I was lucky enough to have a small class size full of amazing students diagnosed with Dyslexia in grades second and third. Therefore, everything I do, for eight hours a day, is based on the Orton-Gillingham Approach! I teach all subjects and incorporate many multi-sensory techniques. In this post I am going to take you on a tour of my classroom and include some of my favorite Orton-Gillingham based activities! Orton-Gillingham Classroom Decor Pack available click here





That is what my classroom looked like at the beginning of the year! I created an alphabet banner with the Orton-Gillngham Keywords I used. Alphabet Banner available click here

Below is my small group area where I conduct all of my small group Orton-Gillingham lessons. Poster available click here




















I created a Red Words (non-phonetic words) bulletin board to help my students with those tricky words that you just can't sound out! Red Word Wall available click here other versions available too!
