Ready Reader: Spelling and Decoding
Help your child gain confidence in core reading skills with Thinking Organized’s Decoding & Spelling program!
In this one-on-one, four-day program, your children will participate in decoding and encoding programs to strengthen their reading and spelling skills. We will assess your child to determine the appropriate entry point to the program using a variety of screeners, questionnaires, and information from you!
Please Note: The program entry point is not dictated by age but by your child’s skill level.
Based on results from our screeners, your child will engage in one of the following for the length of the program. Additional weeks can be added (and are recommended!) for more robust skills development.
