The Magic of Science

The Science of Reading breaks down how children learn to read: it’s comprehensive, evidence-based, and integrates psychology, neuroscience, and education insights. This body of work is the backbone of effective reading help for kids with dyslexia, developmental delays or learning disabilities. Structured Literacy is the most effective teaching model, and it’s derived from the Science of Reading.
