How we learn to read is not a secret formula, it's a science. More than five decades of research conducted across the world informs the Science of Reading. This one-stop guide examines the crucial aspects of literacy development. Uncover the workings of the brain in processing language stimuli and print information, bridging the gap between sound and text for effective reading. Delve into language development, drawing parallels with oral language acquisition while addressing the challenges of learning to read. Navigate the Reading Rope model, a practical framework illustrating the intertwined processes of word recognition and language comprehension. Journey through essential reading skills, from foundational elements like phonemic awareness and phonics to advanced aspects like decoding, sight recognition, and fluency development. Gain practical insights into comprehension challenges and the complexities of addressing dyslexia. Additionally, the book explores the concept of reading ages, offering a pragmatic understanding of the Science of Reading.
