Frequently Asked Questions:
Why Use Orton Gillingham Materials?
Our collection of Orton Gillingham materials and resources will give you all of the tools you need to support a child in reading, writing, and math, especially if they have dyslexia or other learning challenges. All of the materials and products in the shop follow the Orton Gillingham approach to learning. This approach is perhaps the best and most effective for teaching students with dyslexia and learning challenges, and is in fact also very effective for any student.
What is the Orton Gillingham approach, and how does it work? In short, it is an approach that is systematic, sequential, uses constant review of previous material, and is multisensory.
According Understood.org:
“Orton–Gillingham is a teaching approach that was designed to help struggling readers. It explicitly teaches the connections between letters and sounds. Many reading programs include Orton–Gillingham ideas.
Orton–Gillingham is a structured literacy approach. It introduced the idea of breaking reading and spelling down into smaller skills involving letters and sounds, and then building on these skills over time.
“It also pioneered the multisensory approach to teaching reading, which is a common part of effective literacy programs. This means that instructors use sight, hearing, touch, and movement to help students connect language with letters and words. Orton–Gillingham is widely used to teach students with dyslexia.”

What Materials Do You Need For Orton-Gillingham?
Orton Gillingham materials can come in a wide variety of forms. As long as the materials allow for following the Orton Gillingham approach as described above (systematic, sequential, uses constant review of previous material, and is multisensory), then they will be beneficial for the child. However, the products in our shop not only follow this approach, but are also incredibly fun, visually appealing, and engaging for the student. Whether it’s the fun characters for each phonics concept in the Awakening Potential For Reading Success Program, the beautiful illustrations in the Phonics Ebooks, or colorful graphic organizers in our writing and math sections, you’ll be able to gain the interest of the child you are teaching so that you can help them learn effectively.
How Much Does Orton-Gillingham Cost?
The cost of Orton Gillingham materials can vary widely. Part of this depends on if you are purchasing digital products or physical products. Digital products have the advantage of being lower cost, because no physical material is needed to create them. And they are just as effective as physical products. The same approach that Orton Gillingham uses with physical products is also used with digital products, and they have the advantage of being able to be used for online learning and distance learning. Phonics ebooks can be read with any e-reader or pdf reader, and other products such as reading program materials and graphic organizers can also be used in note taking and whiteboard apps and software such as Goodnotes and Lucidspark, among others.
