The Literacy Loft

The Literacy Loft The Literacy Loft uses the Orton Gillingham method to work with people of all ages who have reading challenges. SERVICES ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY.

The Literacy Loft specializes in assisting people with varying levels of abilities to learn or improve their skills in reading, writing, spelling and comprehension. We also teach individualized learning strategies and assistive technology. We use the Orton Gillingham approach to literacy. It's a direct, language- based approach to learning which is multi-sensory, structured and flexible. It employ

🍂 Hello, September - we’re ready for cooler weather, cozy blankets and some good books! 🍂

The kids are back to school, the days are getting a little cooler, and a new season is just beginning. After the busy days of summer, September is the perfect time to slow down, settle into a new routine, and enjoy a little peaceful time for yourself.

Reading for just 15–20 minutes each day provides children with many lasting benefits.

Daily reading helps strengthen literacy skills, expand vocabulary, improve comprehension, and develop critical thinking.

It also enhances concentration, sparks imagination, and builds a lifelong love of learning.

Even a short reading routine each day can have a significant positive impact on a child's academic success and overall development.
