White Paper: The Settled Science of Teaching Reading

Educators have been discussing the “right” way to teach reading for decades. In our white paper “The Settled Science of Teaching Reading,” we get past the soundbites and engage meaningfully with what the research says. We hope to shed light on the issues and offer guidance and instructional considerations—all based on research. Download the white paper to read about:
