My Project

Our school is working to make a shift from a balanced literacy approach to one that is centered around the Science of Reading. The books about the shift from balanced literacy to the science of reading will be a great resource for teachers as they learn more about the Science of Reading and how to best teach students how to read.

We would like to make this shift school-wide so that all students benefit from this and we can begin to close the gap of our lowest reading students.
