At Jemicy, students are taught the way they learn best. We know that one size does NOT fit all, so Jemicy teachers utilize a variety of multi-sensory, research-based programs, personalized for each learner. Please join us at one of our information sessions.
Straight from the Moose's Mouth: Upper School Student Forum

Teaching Students to Read (Students Entering Grades 1-9)
Attendees will learn how the “reading brain” works, and why some children struggle with the acquisition of reading skills. You will participate in some examples of the multisensory activities we utilize and discuss how the latest brain research influences our curriculum, our instructional approach, and our highly structured teaching techniques. Best of all, you will understand how we engage students and lay the groundwork for the development of a confident reader.
