Madsen English
Libby O'Linger
Students must have taken the first two trimesters of Madsen English in order to
enroll in this class. No new students will be accepted at this time.
Class fee $0.
Madsen English will teach the formation of
all letters, then apply them by using them in spelling words and writing
sentences. This method uses all four neurological pathways of learning at
the same time (speaking, hearing, doing, and seeing) for an exceptionally
high retention rate! Using all pathways means that any learning style can
learn using this method.
To learn the formation of letters, we learn
checkpoints on the paper and "say and draw" so that instead of only using
the visually-based "copy method" we have knowledge-based information in our
brains. This eliminates the problems with dislexia, disgraphia, and other
learning disabilities. In fact, the research is showing that we are
unknowingly building learning disabilities into our children by relying
solely on visual memory methods. We will learn six or seven phonograms
(letter sounds) at a time and immediately apply those by learning words with
them, then soon learning sentence structure and using our new words to form
sentences.
If an older child wants to join the class,
he will be welcome.
