Literacy Learners:
- Reading is one of the most crucial skills a child needs to be successful, but teaching reading is often stressful and challenging for kids and parents alike . Using a hands-on, multisensory Orton Gillingham based approach, this class is designed to create a fun environment that fosters literacy where kids get to play and socialize while also getting customized one on one support. As homeschoolers, it's such a gift to meet our children's learning pace where it falls. As they speed ahead in their depth of knowledge, sometimes foundations like phonics can use some additional reinforcement. This class will make sure their reading skills stay strong as you continue to follow their lead in learning. To maximize success teachers will send home weekly recommended "homework" in the form of suggested activities that reinforce class learning. Homework isn't mandatory, but will increase students ability to gain skills and become comfortable with reading.

In NBOG, we seek to generate a purposeful spirit of play in just about everything we do: we play plant and animal identification games, we play games to extend our physical coordination and endurance, to learn to tie knots, to learn to build survival shelters, to improve our ability to communicate, and to foster compassion for one another.
