Discover and Apply Methods Based on the Science of Reading
In this training, we will draw connections between the phonograms and spelling rules that explain 98% of English words, the five strands of reading, the neuroscience of reading, the simple view of reading and orthographic mapping. Together, we will explore how the brain learns to read and what that means for reading instruction.
Because of our commitment to making this information accessible to all, we are offering several full and partial scholarships for this training. Fill out our scholarship application form, and someone from our team will contact you with more information.
