Six (More) Practices to Shift Your Focus to the Science of Reading
With the conversation about the Science of Reading centered on beginning readers, upper elementary educators have been left to wonder what the research says about intermediate reading instruction. This course presents upper elementary teachers with the foundational research, practical strategies, and cheerful encouragement to meet the advancing needs of diverse learners. It is a continuation of knowledge building gathered from the author's first text, which is the anchor for course 5227: Shifting Your Focus to the Science of Reading and focuses on early reading instruction. We encourage participation in both courses (though not required) as each helps educators grow their knowledge to cover the spectrum of skills from the alphabetic principle and phoneme-grapheme connections, to listening comprehension and sight word memorization (included in the PK-3 course).
