THE LITERACY BARN
Our Philosophy
At The Literacy Barn, we believe every child is unique, and every child's learning pathway is individualized. We believe that the development of reading, writing, and speaking skills is tightly interwoven. We also believe that literacy skills are not innately learned for all children. Therefore, we believe in carefully assessing every child's literacy development to create individualized learning programs provided by experts in speech, language, reading, and writing.
But equally important, we believe that learning is a personally engaging process built on safe and nurturing relationships. We believe that meaningful learning will not take place without a comfortable environment that fosters creativity, risk-taking, and exploration. We also believe that skill-based learning occurs alongside emotional and mental learning. Therefore, we believe in a holistic approach that considers the whole child as they develop literacy skills.
Why that makes us different
At The Literacy Barn, we utilize a team approach to evaluate and assess each child and create a program plan that may encompass multiple areas of need with multiple professionals. Our professionals draw on a variety of resources, therapeutic, and intervention programs to custom design a program around each individual student. We also partner with families, educators, and outside providers to ensure each child is surrounded by a community of support.
