Way to Help Title Way to Help Content In an hour or two a week you can teach a kindergartner to read with Making Sense of Language Arts. You will be trained in our techniques (Alphabet Sound Song & Bilateral Exercises--crossing midline, Visualization of Story, Tactile Letter Recognition--single sound, Seek and Find Game, Sensory Review of beginning sounds to date, Word formation, and Receptive and Expressive Reviews of Sounds) and paired with a child. Then weekly, at a local school, you’ll be given a lesson plan, materials and the supervision to empower this child to learn to read and write. Making the difference at such a young age, changes the trajectory of his or her whole life forever!
