Scheduling
All classes are taught virtually through Zoom.
Lexercise students take one weekly live session through Zoom (45 minutes) and receive access to daily online practice (approximately 15 minutes per day) that is customized for each student's needs and goals. This is a great option for families with busy schedules as the daily practice (at least 4 days per week) is highly flexible and can be done at any time the family chooses. Parents also have acccess to daily shared activities that support the concepts the child is working in both live sessions and their independent online games.
Students taking more traditional Orton-Gillingham style classes will meet live over Zoom twice weekly.
Based on Orton-Gillingham recommendations, students take classes at least twice a week on non-consecutive days. This is especially true if they are struggling with reading, have a dyslexia diagnosis, or have another learning disability diagnosis.
There are multiple reasons for this.
A few are as follows:
- Classes introduce new material at a pace suitable for your child. It takes time for new concepts to become part of long-term memory, and spaced, repetitive practice helps students begin internalizing the new material. When they have twice-a-week sessions they are often introduced to a new topic on Day 1. On Day 2, while the material is still fresh, they are able to practice with guidance, which moves them towards a deeper understanding of the concept.
- Meeting at least twice a week offers students the frequent and intense instruction often required for children with learning differences.
- When students need to miss a session, twice a week sessions will limit the time away by preventing multi-week gaps in instruction.
- Consistently meeting on the same days each week allows a student to develop a routine.
Online classes are taught on a flexible schedule to fit parent and student schedules.
Classes are 45 minutes and are available during the school day or after school.
