What is Dyslexia?
"Dyslexia is an unexpected difficulty in learning to read. Dyslexia takes away an individual’s ability to read quickly and automatically and to retrieve spoken words easily, but it does not dampen one’s creativity and ingenuity." (http://dyslexia.yale.edu/)

LISA Academy offers Dyslexia services for all students who qualify to help them learn at their highest potential.
LISA Academy utilizes Connections: OG in 3D from The Apple Group for Dyslexia services.
CONNECTIONS: OG in 3D® follows the principles and content of a multisensory structured language approach. CONNECTIONS stands apart from other O-G programs because it incorporates phonemic objects. By holding the objects, which represent the sound he is learning, the student can actually "feel" the sound, helping him/her make more connections to the brain for remembering the sound. In addition to visual, auditory, tactile, and kinesthetic teaching. CONNECTIONS also incorporates teaching sounds by smell and taste, senses that are often overlooked in multisensory programs. This program teaches principles of Phonology, sound-symbol association, morphology, syntax, and semantics through multisensory language instruction (using visual, auditory, and kinesthetic-tactile learning pathways) to enhance memory and learning.
