Structured Literacy 

Explicit. Systematic. Evidence-Based.

At Insight Academics, literacy is not left to chance.

​

Reading and writing form the foundation of academic confidence, executive functioning, and long-term performance. For students with dyslexia or language-based learning differences, traditional literacy instruction is often insufficient.

 

Our Structured Literacy program is grounded in the science of reading and delivered through the Orton-Gillingham approach — an explicit, systematic, and multisensory methodology.

What is Structured Literacy ?

Structured Literacy is an evidence-based instructional framework designed to teach reading and writing in a clear, sequential, and cumulative manner.

 

Instruction includes:

  • Phonemic awareness

  • Phonics and decoding

  • Spelling and encoding

  • Morphology and word structure

  • Fluency development

  • Reading comprehension

  • Written expression

 

This approach removes guesswork and builds literacy through precision and repetition.

The Orton-Gillingham Approach

Insight Academics integrates the Orton-Gillingham methodology under the guidance of Amy, our Structured Literacy Specialist.

 

Orton-Gillingham is:

  • Direct

  • Diagnostic

  • Multisensory

  • Cumulative

  • Individualized

 

Students engage visually, auditorily, and kinesthetically to strengthen neural pathways related to language processing. This method is particularly effective for students with:

  • Dyslexia

  • Dysgraphia

  • Decoding challenges

  • Spelling difficulties

  • Written expression delays
