The Turbo Start curriculum is a nine-week, evidence-based dyslexia intervention designed to provide a jump start for newly identified students of all ages who need comprehensive dyslexia intervention while awaiting placement in an intervention group. Derived from the evidence-based dyslexia curriculum, Turbo Start provides foundational training in the five components of effective reading instruction, including phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, reading comprehension. Each component is taught developmentally using a direct, systematic, cumulative, multi-sensory method of introduction and practice to meet specific needs of newly identified students with dyslexia. This session aligns to the dyslexia component of the TEA Self - Assessment.
