For over 40 years the Curtis Blake Day School has provided instruction to students with language-based learning disabilities. All aspects of the curriculum focus on understanding language and effectively communicating one’s knowledge.

Our decoding strategy incorporates a unique combination of the Lindamood® Phoneme Sequencing Program (LiPS) to develop kinesthetic awareness of speech sounds and their association with individual letters, the Orton-Gillingham Approach (OG) to reading and spelling, and symbol imagery instruction to enhance rapid reading, spelling, and self-correction.

Students receive one-on-one reading instruction where they are cued to employ taught decoding and comprehension strategies. Skill-building in vocabulary, fluency, sentence structure, clarification, retelling and summarization receive special attention during this concentrated reading session.

It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.
