multisensory
instruction & LEarning
The International Dyslexia Association defines Multisensory instruction as:
Multisensory learning involves the use of visual, auditory, and kinesthetic-tactile pathways simultaneously to enhance memory and learning of written language.
Multisensory Instruction At-A-Glance
-
Multisensory instruction teaches to more than one sense at a time.
-
This method of instruction gives students more than one way to make connections and learn concepts.
-
Multisensory instruction is not just limited to teaching reading. It can be applied to any concept.
