The Orton Gillingham approach to teaching reading is extremely popular in literacy curriculums these days. Some people even consider this type of curriculums the “gold standard” for teaching phonics.
Why?
That's exactly what you'll find out in this video.
Orton-Gillingham curriculums don’t assume that children will just figure things out all by themselves.
They explicitly explain the rules, and they tend to use a very carefully-designed, a very strategic scope and sequence, introducing lots opportunities for review along the way, to consolidate learning.
Besides, Orton-Gillingham curriculums pair all of this with the multi sensory approach to teaching reading, involving all the senses for a more holistic and robust learning experience.
