Description

A clear and actionable guide to making sense of and implementing the Science of Reading

There's Research for That answers common questions about teaching literacy, such as how many letters to teach per week and the benefits of teaching handwriting in a digital world. The Science of Reading directly affects how K-5 teachers do their jobs. It's hard to keep up with all of the findings, and teachers need guidance on how to apply research in practice. This book offers a solution, giving you accessible explanations, examples, and strategies for helping your students build literacy skills.

Each chapter covers a single question, making it easy to find what you're looking for when you need it. The authors discuss the question, describe the history behind current practices, and unlike other books, There's Research For That actually walks you through the "what" of the research and the "why," showing how research connects to everyday teaching. Woven throughout are pointers on how best instructional practices can be applied or adapted for students across academic levels, and from all cultural and linguistic backgrounds.

This resource:

Explains research on literacy education in a handy Q&A format
Describes teaching best practices and the reasons behind them
Shows you how to update what you're already doing to reflect new evidence
Can be used with various literacy curriculums and reading programs

This comprehensive and user-friendly breakdown of the Science of Reading will help ensure that you're doing what works to help develop students' literacy skills.
