Dyslexia Therapy
Take Flight dyslexia therapy during the school day: multisensory, structured reading instruction delivered by LCA specialists who partner with classroom teachers.
Who It Is For
Evidence-based reading therapy at school
Dyslexia Therapy at LCA is for students with a qualifying reading disorder diagnosis, a full educational diagnostic battery, and a documented educational need for accommodations and support.
Therapy happens during the school day, five times per week, so families are not choosing between after-school activities and consistent remediation.
Getting Started
Requirements for Participation
- Completion of a full educational diagnostic battery (academic and achievement testing)
- A qualifying reading disorder diagnosis
- Student must have a functional limitation (an educational need for accommodations and support)
Curriculum
Take Flight Program
Legacy uses the Take Flight Program as the basis of therapy for students with dyslexia. Take Flight contains the five components of effective reading instruction: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency, and Reading Comprehension.
Fluency Practice
Practice opportunities are designed to improve oral reading fluency within structured, multisensory lessons.
Comprehension
Take Flight introduces comprehension and vocabulary strategies for narrative and expository text to prepare students for independent reading.
Sessions are typically dedicated 45-minute pull-outs, five days per week, with an Individualized Accommodation Plan and digital accommodations when needed.
