Professional Development and Training

Turning Pages training programs are based on the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction.

​This research-proven approach was developed by Dr. Samual Orton and Anna Gillingham and utilizes phonetics while incorporating visual, auditory and kinesthetic learning styles.

The training moves from simple to complex in a sequential, cumulative and systematic manner. Trainees will receive explicit instruction on how to implement the Orton-Gillingham approach, including the following techniques:

• Simultaneous Oral Spelling – Finger Spelling
• Tracing/Skywriting
• Penciling
• Arm-Spelling
• Blending
• And other multi-sensory techniques​

Trainees receive 30 hours of hands-on instruction. This course is available for graduate credit or continuing education credits. Upon completion, individuals will be able to create individualized lesson plans and be able to teach:

• Six syllable patterns
• Syllable division rules
• Spelling rules
• Phonemic Awareness
• Affixes
• Non-Phonetic (Red) Words
• Homophones
