Educators’ knowledge about reading science, its’ practical applications in the classroom, and its impacts on students’ experience is core to literacy learning and success. In this episode of Literacy Talks, you’ll hear an open and solutions-focused conversation about teacher and administrator knowledge and steps every educator can take to understand the how’s and why’s of teaching reading to all learners. Join hosts Stacy Hurst, professor at Southern Utah University and Chief Academic Officer at Reading Horizons, Donell Pons, a recognized literacy and special education expert, and Lindsay Kemeny, a Utah-based elementary classroom teacher, for a memorable session.
For many adolescent readers, comprehension challenges may be a symptom of something deeper. National research shows that many older students are still missing foundational reading skills. We're sponsoring a series of in-person events spanning multiple cities and states across the country, bringing together district, community, and literacy leaders to address the needs of adolescent readers.
