The Science of Reading: Phonics Instruction That Leads to Orthographic Mapping
Learn how the work of cognitive scientists should shape classroom instruction to ensure that students go beyond letter-sound connections to orthographic mapping. Participants will examine how to assess and analyze students’ phonic knowledge and decoding skills. We'll also explore practical phonics activities for whole-class and small-group settings that will keep students engaged while providing systematic and explicit instruction. Learning outcomes: • Name the role that phonics plays in the science of reading and how it affects early literacy development • Define phonics
Recommended for: K–5 teachers and instructional coaches Time: Three hours Item #s: In-Person: 737913 Virtual: 743480 Participants: Up to 30
• Assess and analyze students’ phonics skills • Plan and facilitate data-informed instruction for phonics

The Science of Reading: Supporting Fluency Development In this session of the Science of Reading Series, participants will learn the science behind how fluency helps build students' reading comprehension. Participants will learn strategies for improving reading fluency and leave the session with a practical plan for incorporating fluency-building activities into their instruction. Learning outcomes: • Understand the science behind how fluency supports comprehension • Practice instructional strategies that build fluency • Create a plan for developing high-impact fluency instruction
