The “science of reading” often gets reduced to “phonics,” but there’s a lot of science that relates to reading comprehension as well. If we look at typical comprehension instruction through the lens of cognitive science, it becomes clear that we’ve unintentionally made reading and writing much harder than they need to be by separating them from each other and from content-area instruction. But cognitive science also tells us that a content-rich curriculum combined with explicit, m...

Evidence-Aligned Reading Instruction: Transforming Your School or District
School change is hard…but it can be done! Join us as we talk about what it takes to transform a school’s culture of practice to be more aligned with the scientific evidence base on reading, and why it’s worth the effort. Dr. Heidi Beverine-Curry of The Reading League will share how a single school or entire district can transition successfully to teaching reading based on science, and how that transition can dramatically improve overall literacy and student outcomes. Join us as we discuss: Wh...
