GE 6047 - Reading Practicum based on Orton-Gillingham

This course is a supervised, field-based practicum in which students focus on addressing the needs of children who struggle with literacy. Implementation of literacy lessons will be prescriptive in nature based on the needs of the class, small group, or individual student. Students will be required to develop lessons that follow the format of and include the components of the Orton-Gillingham research-based methodology. This course builds on the knowledge, skills, and experiences gained in the previous six prerequisite courses. This course provides an opportunity to apply what was learned while working directly with children in a real-world setting.
