Thank you for Attending Part 1 of the Science of Reading Virtual Workshop

Thank you for taking the time to attend Part 1 of the Science of Reading Virtual Workshop. We really enjoyed spending time with you. As mentioned, we have curated a list of research papers and articles which will help you continue your learning, including the article by Dr. Louisa Moats, “Teaching is Rocket Science, 2020.”  To access the article by Dr. Louisa Moats click here. As referenced during the webinar, we look to Dr. Moats for leadership and guidance on this topic and embrace many of the thoughts she has compiled in this article. We hope you enjoy reading it!
