Schools & Organizations

Throughout the U.S., many schools, tutoring agencies, and learning centers have professionals trained in the Slingerland Approach. The degree to which these organizations use the approach can vary significantly. 

​

Hamlin Robinson School, located in Seattle, WA, is a full Strategic Partner, with all classroom teachers trained in the Slingerland Approach and meeting all other partnership qualifications. 

​

Here are some questions to ask schools identifying themselves as providing Slingerland instruction:  

  

• How is Slingerland Instruction provided – in the classroom, in small group pull‐out programs, or individually?  (The Slingerland Approach may be presented in any of these formats. ) 

• How much time is allotted for handwriting, spelling and written language, and reading?  

• How are students grouped for instruction?     

• Is there planning for individual needs?     

• Are students actively engaged?  

• Does the school consider all curriculum when planning for your student?    

• Does the school provide Slingerland supervision or in‐service training for faculty?
