SCSC- Take Flight Year 1, Cohort 7, Day 6

Take Flight: A Comprehensive Intervention for Students with Dyslexia is a curriculum written by Scottish Rite’s Center for Dyslexia staff. It builds on the success of Scottish Rite’s three previous dyslexia intervention programs: Alphabetic Phonics, Dyslexia Training Program and Scottish Rite for Children Literacy Program. Take Flight contains the five components of effective reading instruction identified by National Reading Panel research. Take Flight addresses each component by: Phonemic Awareness — following established procedures for explicitly teaching the relationships between speech-sound production and spelling-sound patterns Phonics — providing a systematic approach for single-word decoding Fluency — using research-proven directed practice in the repeated reading of words, phrases and passages to help students read newly encountered text more fluently Vocabulary – featuring multiple word learning strategies (definitional, structural, contextual) and explicit teaching techniques with application in text Reading Comprehension – teaching students to explicitly use and articulate multiple comprehension strategies (e.g., cooperative learning, story structure, question generation and answering, summarization and comprehension monitoring) Take Flight was designed for use by individuals trained to the therapy level for children with dyslexia ages 7 and older. The comprehensive program is ideally taught:four days per week (60 minutes per day) or five days per week (45 minutes per day). It is intended for small-group instruction with no more than six students per group. Participants will need to purchase materials directly from Texas Scottish Rite Hospital for Children using this https://scottishriteforchildren.org/care/dyslexia/dy
