THE ORTON-GILLINGHAM PROGRAM

Spring Valley School utilizes the Orton-Gillingham teaching method which emphasizes a multi-sensory approach to reading, employing the visual, auditory, and tactile systems. Based on over 60 years of research and practice, this unique curriculum is highly individualized and cognitive in approach. The Orton-Gillingham method is anchored in multi-sensory language instruction that stimulates and builds auditory, visual and tactile/kinesthetic pathways to learning. It teaches the structure of language and the tools that improve reading, writing and spelling.
