What type of student is this reading program for?
This Orton-Gillingham based reading program is for students, ages 7 to 13, who are dyslexic or who simply struggle to read and spell. This is also very helpful for children with communicative issues, an auditory processing disorder, as well as a auditory discrimination problems.
How does this program work?
The reading program contains fifty lessons with five review lessons. The lessons will walk you through the process of teaching your student to read and spell. This is done systematically with short workbook exercises followed by the online games and tools. The program includes five components: 1) the lessons, 2) the online flash cards, 3) the online dictations, 4) the workbook exercises, and 5) the online games.
What are the benefits of using this reading program?
This is a reading program specifically designed for dyslexia. It was created, changed, and tweaked with the help of many students. We saw what worked and what didn't and
created a kid-friendly program that would be effective and enjoyable. In fact, we often hear the comment that this was the program that finally worked.
The goal of this program is to get
your student reading as quickly as possible. If done daily, it could be completed within three months (for most students).
The ease of which this program can be implemented ensures that just about anyone can do it (note that we do feel that instructors should share the same accent as the student). Parents, older siblings,
grandparents, as well as hired tutors or teachers can all easily use this program.
Flash cards for review, letter tiles for interactive demonstrations, and audio dictations for students' independent spelling practice.
Online activities for lesson reinforcement. These are made to be fun for this age group, and some activities allow students to earn coins which can be spent in the "Fun Zone".

"Last year a fellow colleague introduced me to the I Can Fly Reading and Blast off to Reading program. Since then I have recommended it to everyone working with students. I use the app daily to reinforce the lesson plans in the book. My students have their own workbook that they enjoy using. The app gives my students endless practice. I don't know what I would do if I didn't have it."
Deanne Lakatos - OG Practitioner
"Blast Off to Reading is an amazing instructional tool that I use with students. The lessons help my struggling readers focus on letter/sound relationships, vowels, etc. The games, especially the b, d reversal games, really help and are so enjoyable my students forget that they're learning at the same time!"
Dawn Campbell - ME and also working toward OG cert.
My son has dyslexia and has struggled with reading. I have tried several programs and so far this has been the best one!
The games make the program engaging and fun while learning how to read. I am now having my other son do the program as well
just to solidify the foundations. Great program. Thank you for caring about those that struggle and finding new ways to learn.
