Coding Literacy
Students code Orton-Gillingham a multi-sensory phonics teaching approach into Minecraft, a LEGO-like block building video game. We motivate our students better than anyone. Children learn through playing, coding, reading and spelling to make two-dimensional lessons into three-dimensional worlds. Our Coding Literacy program is built on a foundation of sequential phonics. This is combined with neuro-plasticity techniques, and executive functioning exercises. We then researched leading literacy programs, and put them in a teacher-led educational video game that students play with their reading therapist using their tablet, phone or computer.
Coding Friendship
We know making meaningful friendships can be hard for students with different needs. Let us help your child discover a whole world of friends who they can play and learn social skills along with. We offer a Minecraft Social Group every other Saturday year-round for our members, as well as a formal Social Skills program in the Spring to help students build social skills. We strive to help our members develop social skills they can take from online to anywhere - school, home, and the world!
Coding Intelligence
and
Cognitive Development
We use the principles of neuro-plasticity and cognitive development in all our lessons. We know that people who have had strokes, suffered traumatic brain injuries, or have been born with neurological impairments have been able to learn or relearn to read. Your child's diagnosis does not get the final word. Your child's brain is changeable. It is possible to build intelligence and develop cognitive ability.
We believe this, and it is our guiding principle. If your child can speak, they can learn to read.
Coding Math
Learn concepts like perimeter, area, ratios, patterns, and coordinates. Math comes alive when it can be played spatially, and can be manipulated with the click of the mouse or touch of an iPad. Learning with a game that students recognize and love also helps them to stay engaged and energized.
