Project ASSIST institute: An orton-gillingham/spalding based curriculum for teachers and volunteers
1Project ASSIST Institute, Wilmington, Delaware.
Abstract:
In spite of our best efforts, our son Andrew did not learn to read until he attended the Jemicy School at the age of 12. Our search for help and eventual success led me to take the Orton-Gillingham approach into the public schools of Delaware, first with volunteers and then with teachers.In 1991-92, the Milford School District did a Pre-Post Design pilot using the Woodcock Johnson Reading Mastery Test for decoding and comprehension and the WRAT Revised for spelling. The results are included.Another pilot with a control group from another school district is being done in 1992-93 and a third pilot is being planned for New Castle County, Delaware in 1993-94.Training for teachers in the juvenile justice system is also planned for 1993-94.
