DVFriends will offer our multisensory reading instruction this summer for rising 1st - 12th grade students. This program pairs each student with one of our O-G trained instructors for a truly individualized experience.
Students will receive a one-hour lesson scheduled each weekday at their convenience between 8:00 am - 12:00 pm (the last session begins at 11:00 am) from July 1 -- August 2 (no instruction on July 4). Lessons will be customized for each student based on their learning needs, skills, and goals and include decoding, spelling, vocabulary, morphology, writing, reading, fluency, and reading comprehension skills as appropriate for each student.
Summer program instructors include DVFriends teachers as well as teachers from outside DV who have been trained through our IMSLEC-accredited literacy training program. Whether the goal is making progress in decoding or polishing writing skills, DV Summer instructors are trained to help.
The instructional sessions will take place in person at DVFriends' Paoli campus.
