Building strong readers from the ground up
Our Approach
At Growing Minds Literacy Centre, instruction is:
Targeted – Based on a comprehensive literacy assessment
Structured – Skills are taught in a clear, logical sequence
Explicit – Nothing is left to guessing or assumption
Individualized – Lessons are tailored to each child’s needs
Progress-Monitored – Growth is tracked regularly
This ensures meaningful, lasting improvement, not short-term fixes.
Structured literacy teaches children how written language works from sounds and letters to spelling patterns, vocabulary, comprehension, and writing.
Instead of memorizing or guessing, students learn:
how sounds connect to letters
how words are built
how sentences are structured
how meaning is constructed
This approach is especially effective for children who have fallen behind or find reading confusing.
