Structured Literacy
Why Multisensory Structured Literacy?
Structured Literacy™ is the term used, since 2016, by the International Dyslexia Association to describe and consolidate the many names for a research-based approach to teaching reading and writing. It is an explicit, systematic and cumulative approach that decades of research shows is a highly effective way to teach dyslexic students. This research evolved from an approach developed by Dr Samuel Orton and Anna Gillingham in the 1930’s and 40’s.
