Orton Gillingham & Multisensory Structured Literacy

What is meant by multisensory teaching?

Multisensory teaching is a specialized approach that simultaneously uses visual, auditory, and kinesthetic-tactile pathways to enhance memory and learning of written language. It establishes a multi-layered neural connection in the brain.

Connections are consistently made between the visual (language we see), auditory (language we hear), and kinesthetic-tactile (language symbols we feel) pathways. This three-pronged approach ensures that students with learning differences have multiple ways to anchor information.

By engaging multiple senses, we help students bypass processing weaknesses and leverage their cognitive strengths to achieve reading fluency and phonemic awareness.

Is there solid evidence that multisensory teaching is effective?

Yes. Current neuroscientific research using functional MRI scans has shown that students with dyslexia often have different brain activation patterns. Multisensory instruction helps reroute these pathways, creating more efficient connections for decoding and comprehension.

Summary: What are the principles?

Simultaneous & Multisensory

Engaging all learning pathways at once to strengthen memory.

Systematic & Cumulative

Instruction follows a logical order, moving from simple to complex skills.

Direct Instruction

Concepts are taught explicitly and never left to chance or intuition.

Diagnostic & Prescriptive

Lesson plans are constantly adjusted based on the student's individual progress.
