The Science of Reading Series

apply CURRENT READING RESEARCH IN YOUR CLASSROOM

Our virtual Introductory Science of Reading Professional Learning Series teaches critical components of literacy instruction for Grades K-2, 3-5, or Administrators*, integrating current research into each module and translating it into classroom application.

The series consists of ten 2-hour facilitated, synchronous modules held via Zoom and continued learning through asynchronous materials and follow up activities via Google Classroom. These modules address questions such as:

  • What happens in the brain when we read? How can this understanding inform our instruction?
  • How is reading related to oral language?
  • What are high-leverage instructional routines that support reading acquisition?
  • What role does automaticity play in becoming a proficient reader?
  • What cognitive processes are involved in deeply understanding text?
  • How do we know we are using the right assessments to determine student need?
  • . . . and much more!

It can be challenging to know where to start and what to do with my readers who are below grade level.  This course has given me new, research-based strategies to help me better my instruction, especially for my struggling readers.

The approach to reading instruction as something that can be attacked on a scientific level has made something that felt very abstract feel and become more manageable.
