Science of Reading
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
• Assess and analyze students’ phonics skills • Plan and facilitate data-informed instruction for phonics
