| Goal | The goal of the program is to support struggling readers by using a multi-sensory approach that engages visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning pathways. This method aims to strengthen neural connections, helping students more effectively decode and retain words. By incorporating multiple senses, the program seeks to build reading fluency and boost students’ confidence through interactive and meaningful learning experiences. |
| Description | Students will be actively engaged in learning to read through a variety of multi-sensory tools, including LCD writing tablets, colorful sand for tracing letters, mirrors for practicing mouth movements, and word flip charts for building word recognition. These hands-on materials make reading instruction interactive, fun, and effective by involving multiple senses in the learning process. |
| Benefits | Using multi-sensory tools helps students connect sounds to letters and recognize words more easily by engaging different parts of the brain. This strong foundation in letter and word recognition supports the development of fluent, confident readers who are prepared for a lifetime of successful reading. |
