The Wilson Reading System is an intensive reading program for students in grades 2\u201312 and adults with a language-based learning disability, such as dyslexia. Based on the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction, WRS is an explicit, multisensory structured literacy program that teaches the structure of the English language to systematically build strong literacy skills in struggling readers.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson Language Training is accredited by the International Dyslexia Association (IDA). Its WRS Level I Certification has an Accreditation PLUS designation by IDA, which recognizes that the program aligns with IDA\u2019s Knowledge and Practice Standards for Teachers of Reading and produces educators who have engaged in intensive, supervised practicum experiences that promote applied mastery of the principles and practices of structured literacy.<\/p>\n<p>McDaniel is currently accepting applications for the first cohort of this new specialization, which is scheduled to begin in August.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWithin this new certificate program, candidates develop an understanding of the characteristics of dyslexia and its impact on literacy acquisition, as well as learn techniques for multisensory structured language instruction,\u201d said Lisa Buckler, coordinator of the Reading Specialist program at McDaniel.<\/p>\n<p>She added, \u201cResearchers estimate one in five children has a language-based learning difficulties. Recent legislation in Maryland requires schools to screen and provide supplemental reading instruction for students determined to be at risk for reading disorders. This partnership with Wilson sets McDaniel apart in preparing literacy leaders to meet the needs of all students, as the Wilson Reading System is widely used in schools across the United States to help students with dyslexia and other language-based learning disabilities become fluent, independent readers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson President and Co-founder Barbara Wilson shared, \u201cMcDaniel College\u2019s longstanding Reading Specialist graduate program is known for creating literacy leaders in classrooms. We are excited to partner with this program to deliver our mission of providing professional learning that equips educators with the skills and tools they need to successfully teach individuals with language-based learning disabilities, including dyslexia.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information about this new opportunity, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mcdaniel.edu\/academics\/graduate-professional-studies\/reading-specialist-literacy-leadership-ms\">Reading Specialist: Literacy Leadership<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McDaniel College\u2019s Reading Specialist: Literacy Leadership master\u2019s degree program has partnered with Wilson Language Training to offer a new 10-credit dyslexia specialization, which includes Level I Certification in the Wilson Reading System\u00ae\u00a0(WRS).
