i'm a father for a dislycsic son from Yemen specifically from Sana'a city North side of Yemen' I do really like and loved what i learned to day from this channel' yes i can tell you that my English language its not good enough to understand the whole things but i forced my mind to understand everything by pause the vid and translate it every word and pause again on and on' thank you for this wonderful program.
It's good to hear from you. By studying syllable types of words you can improve a child's ability to break down and decode the words to read them better (in English). I don't know about the other languages.
I took an Orton Gillingham one-week course a few years ago. It was phenomenal! I use the OG approach as a supplement to the curriculum (in a Special Ed. classroom as well as an inclusion classroom) and it's amazing. The students love the activities - they think they're just playing, but boy-oh-boy how they are learning!
Thank you for creating this excellent video. I tried accessing the links to your website in the description. But I get a message that says "website expired."
Absolutely. OG is not a program but an approach. There are different programs that are all OG based. Barton Reading and Wilson Reading are a couple of big ones. Other programs that use OG approach are All About Reading.
With English there are ALWAYS exceptions. ;) I teach soft g occurs when followed by i, e, or y. Then, think of the word "get" (hard g). Wilson Reading is an OG based program and it teaches the soft c and soft g rule when followed by i, e, or y also!
Haha. Look through the comments. You aren't the first, and Gillingham is a name. Besides, ask any person who calls roll and they will tell you that names have all sorts of pronunciations. LOL
