#1: The Ultimate Reading Recipe

I am so excited to officially welcome you to my brand new podcast. Even typing those words is thrilling! This has been a wish of mine for a couple of years now, so finally hitting “record” and inviting you to my little corner of the podcasting world is exciting…

And, truth be told, a little bit nerve wracking…

But we are going to push those nerves aside because we have very important work to do. As you may know, 65% of fourth graders in the US are currently reading below grade level.

We have a literacy epidemic that has gone on for far too long and our students are counting on us to roll up our sleeves and lean into the 7 decades of research that helps pinpoint the easier, brain-friendly way to teach reading. 

In this episode, we’ll talk about…

  • An introduction to the science of reading
  • The popular reading formula called the “Simple View of Reading”
  • The very first reading skill students need to learn
  • Phonological awareness versus phonics
  • A simple tweak that helps students learn phonics skills fast
  • What the heck “orthographic mapping” means and why it’s so important
  • The ins and outs of language comprehension
