| Abstract: | This paper discusses a philosophic basis for Orton-Gillingham teaching and attempts to demonstrate how certain of the features
of such multisensory teaching act to remediate language problems exhibited by many dyslexic students. The common basis of
the array of programs coming from both Orton and Gillingham is addressed. Some individual strengths and minor differences
between Orton and Gillingham variations are examined.
The author is grateful to Margaret Rawson who coined the phrase “Structured Flexibility” in her article, “The Structure of
English: The language to be learned,” in theBulletin of the Orton Society 20:103. |
