Quick Reference Guide - NEW from ASCD! 
​


By now we all know the term "science of reading." But can we  understand the easy-to-say concept at a deeper level? And most importantly, can we apply that understanding to teach students to read write and spell? The answer is, yes!. I was tickled when ASCD asked me to write Applying the Science of Reading for them and I'm excited by how this quick reference product turned out. For busy teachers, it efficiently and effectively breaks down insights from neuroscience research and suggests 27 related activities for every classroom. You're hearing about it hear, first, as the 8.5" x 11" three-panel laminated foldout guide (6 pages) is currently at the pre-order stage.
