There is a huge debate brewing over the way educators teach reading. It has been happening for years, but if you do a quick Google search of “Balanced Literacy,” “The Science of Reading,” or even “Lucy Calkins,” you can see hundreds of articles talking about the scandal that is facing Balanced Literacy.
This webinar will talk more about how this popular approach is failing our students, why structured phonics works, and what you can do to advocate for better reading instruction at your child's school. As a bonus we will send you some free resources to help you speak with confidence with teachers, administration, and district leaders.
