With research from the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) indicating that 4th, 8th, and 12th-grade reading scores are once again abysmally low, particularly among disadvantaged students, it’s time to reflect on our teaching practices to evaluate how to support these learning gaps.
The “Science of Reading” is a comprehensive research area integrating developmental psychology, educational psychology, cognitive science, and cognitive neuroscience, to examine the complex human behavior of reading and its biological foundations. It provides definitive answers to how the human brain learns to read, supported by over 100 scholarly papers and five decades of multidisciplinary research including education, linguistics, psychology, and neurology, delving into our brain’s processing of written words.
In The Science of Reading Workshop, we unpack research-based instructional practices that incorporate multiple components of literacy including word recognition, orthographic mapping, phonics decoding, and language comprehension. We package these practices in lessons that we model for you so you can see in real time how to apply scientific reading instruction in your classroom.
When we understand how the brain functions as it learns and develops, we are better equipped to provide instruction that guides students to acquire reading and language skills.
In this workshop, you’ll learn the science behind how our brains learn to read and the research behind evidence-based practices that support literacy skills. You’ll walk away with the step-by-step strategies, tools, and resources you need to meet the learning needs of all students.

This was one of the best trainings in education I have been to. Informative, Resourceful, Energetic, and Positive!
I love how this workshop touches so many grade levels. Everything presented can be used right away and can be changed/tweaked to meet all grade levels. Kim is genuine and really motivates people. I love the modeling. I also appreciate the resources.
