Does your child need support with reading?

Join us in Boulder this summer for a fun, hands-on camp that includes 2 hours per day of small group reading instruction catered to their needs, plus outdoor experiences, movement, games, art, and creative projects.

This camp is for students ages 6-11 who need support with reading. This program is run by a Dyslexia Specialist, and is designed to be appropriate for students with and without Dyslexia.

Who it’s for

Students will split their time between fun, traditional day camp activities and field trips, and focused, small-group reading instruction. For about 2 hours each day, students will be organized into small groups (approx 2-4 students) based on their learning needs, and receive hands - on, Orton-Gillingham reading Instruction from one of our Learning Specialists.
