The essentials of literacy instruction.
Literacy is the across all disciplines. For several years, the Science of Reading has been dominating the national conversation about literacy, with phonics at its center.
As research and knowledge continue to evolve, it’s time to expand our definition of what science-based reading instruction entails. Let’s start thinking in terms of the Science of Literacy—a phrase that encompasses the Science of Reading, the Science of Writing, and Knowledge Building more broadly. Because together, these bodies of research unlock the wide array of interrelated skills needed to build strong readers, writers, and thinkers. And the more you write, the better you read, the more you understand. Together, we can apply the Science of Literacy to help students explore their curiosities, develop their interests, and share them with the world.
Learning from the Experts
We’re honored to partner with renowned experts and researchers—including 91HUB Hill curriculum authors Dr. Jan Hasbrouck, Dr. Douglas Fisher, and Dr. Timothy Shanahan—to explore and apply the Science of Literacy.
In this video, hear from Dr. Hasbrouck about how she cuts through the noise when it comes to competing guidance on the Science of Reading.
