Ep. 37 Can My Dyslexic Child Really Get Multisensory Instruction Online?
Apr 12, 2024
Some things aren’t as good online as they are “in real life,” but multisensory learning isn’t one of them! In this episode, I share how multisensory learning instruction can be carried out effectively online, specific tools to use, and examples of this in practice.
When I first began my training, I thought multisensory instruction could only be done in person. Fast forward to now, I fully provide this service online! Multisensory instruction simultaneously ties in visual, auditory, kinesthetic, and tactile instruction, also known as VAKT, so that a student uses all the pathways of the brain at the same time.
Some ways this can be achieved include the use of digital letter tiles, interactive online games, skywriting, digital drawing tools, and typing. I offer two examples of this in practice, one an auditory drill and the other a grapheme learning exercise. Multisensory learning online will often look different online than in person, requiring some extra creativity, preparation, and materials, but it is an entirely impactful way to offer multisensory learning online.
