Program for Dyslexia Intervention

Program for Dyslexia Intervention (PDI) is a multi-sensory curriculum-based approach which teaches phonics as well as the structure of the English language.   
 
 
The Program for Dyslexia Intervention (PDI) consists of two parts:
  • Reading by Design- This is a systematic and multi-sensory phonics-based approach aligned with research-based practices for developing literacy. The curriculum is an intensive, explicit and cumulative design for remediation of reading and writing skills for grades K - 5th. This is taught Monday-Thursday.
  • Read Naturally - is a research-proven reading intervention that individualizes instruction and improves reading proficiency. It’s a web-based program that implements audio support and student tracking to improve fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. This program is used each Friday.
Student attendance is determined by a 504 or ARD committee and will be based on the student's IEP.
