[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a typical presentation when a child is being treated for dyslexia or dyslexia-type concerns. Parents love OG-based programs, but they really don't address spelling sufficiently and only do so late in the remediation process. For this reason, you'll see if fairly often that parents here have continued concerns with encoding (spelling). Consider a speech to print approach rather than print to speech, such as OG.[/quote]

OG based programs don’t work on spelling? That’s a big part of every OG lesson for a student with dyslexia. Certified OG dyslexia tutors work on encoding (spelling) and decoding (reading) completely in tandem. Every lessons covers both.[/quote]

I didn't say that OG doesn't work on spelling. I said that they do not address spelling sufficiently and that is why many students whose dyslexia is addressed via OG programs hit a wall where the improvement in spelling slows. OG is very rule-based and memory heavy, which can be a challenge for many students who have learning disabilities. [/quote]
