Description
Feeling overwhelmed by all the science of reading lingo? You’re not alone. In this episode, we’re breaking it down in a way that feels clear, relatable, and reassuring—especially if you're just getting started.
In this episode, we'll talk about:
- Why it’s totally normal to feel nervous about shifting to science-based reading instruction.
- The biggest myth that holds teachers back from making the switch.
- How the science of reading differs from how we were taught.
- What you actually need to focus on first (hint: it’s not mastering all the jargon).
