– Audience: Participants who have completed Practicum I with a grade of B or higher and have the recommendation from their Master Teacher.
In this important Orton-Gillingham follow-up course, master teachers continue to coach teachers who have taken the Orton-Gillingham Multisensory Reading Practicum I ONLINE in implementing multisensory, structured language instruction. As part of this course, teachers must document 60 hours of multisensory teaching through lesson plans and samples of student work under the supervision of a master teacher over a period of at least 9 months, monitoring student’s progress. Using the Edthena Platform, master teachers will observe 6 lessons, providing corrective feedback during the planning and delivery of these lessons. Master teachers will evaluate the documentation of the 60 hours of instruction and progress monitoring, as well. Participants will read and respond to the book, The Reading Mind: A Cognitive approach to understanding how the mind reads by Daniel T.Willingham. This course is required for Orton-Gillingham Certification at the Teaching-Practitioner Level.
Optional College Credit can be purchased at an additional cost through Mount St. Joseph University
