Remediation Services
People
with learning disabilities can learn; they just learn differently. They need to be taught in ways that address those differences.
Remediation
at Lee Pesky Learning Center is:
-
Direct. Students work one-to-one with trained educators.
-
Explicit. Students are active participants in learning how to learn. We help students understand why they learn the way they do.
-
Systematic. The programs follow a skills sequence. Each step in the learning
process builds on previous learning. We use age-appropriate
sequences and programs
that are current and reflect what research has shown is most important
to helping students learn.
-
Multi-sensory. The instruction involves sight, sound, touch, and movement. Students build words with moveable letters, trace sounds as they say
them, and touch felt squares as they recall sequences from a
story. Multi-sensory instruction is fun, engaging, and it works.
When I don't know a word, I just
tap it out!
