Summer Programs at Lawrence Lower School
Alphabet Adventures
Ensure Your Child’s Future Reading Success With Multisensory Alphabet Classes
This three-week summer program is taught by degreed literacy specialists using Lawrence School’s evidence-based multisensory approach. Instruction is individualized to maximize each learner’s letter knowledge and phonemic awareness—a necessary prerequisite for reading. Phonemic Awareness is the connection between letter sounds and letter symbol and we strengthen it using a variety of visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile activities. Numeracy skills will also be a focus.
Alphabet Adventures is designed for all preschool-aged children, not necessarily those with learning differences. One-on-one sessions are also available during the school year.
Lions Leap
Spend your summer at Lawrence School! We’re Northeast Ohio’s only academic program for students with dyslexia and other learning differences.
Lawrence School’s Orton-Gillingham based instructional approach looks a lot like play. Peek into our classrooms and you’ll see students writing in shaving cream, sculpting sight words with modeling clay, bouncing balls as they skip count, and, most importantly, smiling and laughing! But don’t be fooled by all the fun—these engaging multisensory activities lead to serious gains in literacy and mathematics. This summer, we invite your child to leap ahead with Lions Leap!
