The Center for Reading and Language Research at Tufts University (directed by Dr. Maryanne Wolf) is offering a summer reading program for children entering grades 2 - 4 who are not reading at grade level.

The program combines instruction from the Orton Gillingham approach which has been found to build phonological skills and decoding abilities with instruction from our RAVE-O curriculum which fosters the development of fluency and comprehension abilities.
