Word Study: The Big Your School

Word Study – The Big Picture OMG – It’s OG! When taught with fidelity, the Orton- Gillingham method helps students develop strategies so that reading and writing are thinking activities rather than guessing games. WCPSS has adopted the use of the Orton- Gillingham approach with our students. Let’s start reading! THE WCPSS NEWS THE WORLD’S FAVORITE NEWSPAPER - Since 1976 The Orton-Gillingham (OG) approach is language-based, multi- sensory, structured, sequential, cumulative and cognitive method that teaches students the basics of word formation. Students learn to read and spell through visual, auditory and kinesthic activities.

You are doing an announced observation in a 1 st grade classroom. Ms. First Grade Teacher is teaching the Letterland lesson but you have some questions about what she is doing. During the post-conference, the teacher says, “I don’t think I’m doing Letterland the correct way.” What could you do?

You want to help your second grade team implement Letterland with fidelity. You notice that they are still struggling with the lesson and including all the components. What could you do?

You are observing a Letterland Intervention Strand lesson in the CCR or intervention classroom. The teacher explains that she is doing the five step lesson plan. You want more information about how this lesson should be implemented to ensure that students are getting targeted instruction. What could you do?

You are in the sixth 3-5 classroom of the day and you are noticing that it seems that everyone is teaching the prefix un- and re-. A close read of the Reading Foundation Standards does little to clarify. Where could you find resources to support your teachers in identifying what should be taught?

So now that you know and have the tools… We can all aim for the sky in our word work study!
