Science of Reading (US to redo)
Transform Literacy Instruction
Our professional learning is built on the foundation of the science of reading. Recent research and major scientific advancements into literacy acquisition have uncovered a large disconnect between how we are teaching children to read and how children actually learn to read. Only 70% of students leave school with the literacy skills to reach their full potential.
