Staff at ACCESS are certified in three multisensory phonics approaches including The Association Method, Orton Gillingham, and Lindamood-Bell. Orton Gillingham utilizes visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learning styles. The program provides students with immediate feedback and a predictable sequence that integrates reading, writing, and spelling. Lindamood-Bell is a method that integrates auditory, visual, and language processes. Lindamood-Bell focuses on the ability to decode, comprehend written language, comprehend oral language, spell, and to think critically. When these abilities are in place, a student can successfully learn content. The Association Method is an approach specifically identified for the language-impaired population. It has a strong emphasis on comprehension, vocabulary, sentence structure and written expression.
