Speech-Language Therapy
Reading is a challenge for as many as 20-30% of our children. A child can have average or above-average intelligence but still struggle to read. The primary reason for reading and spelling difficulties is weak phonemic awareness. Research has shown that direct instruction is the most effective approach for improving decoding and word recognition skills.
At Therapy Innovations, we use a combination of direct instruction strategies, along with two online programs that are proven to dramatically improve your child’s reading skills. Both of our programs deliver dramatic results for even your most struggling readers and are online interventions that significantly improve language and reading achievement. They are different from other interventions because they strengthen the key pathways in the brain that help children learn. Both programs address reading and language skills, while concurrently developing foundational cognitive skills like memory, attention, processing, and sequencing. These cognitive skills are central to all learning, resulting in improved outcomes for reading and other subject areas too!
