What is the Science of Reading? | Special Education

What is the Science of Reading? You may have heard this term and wondered what exactly the science of reading means. In this video I give you a simple explanation of the science of reading. Although this applies to teaching reading to all levels of students, it is especially helpful for those of us teaching reading to special education students or teaching reading to older students as they have experienced difficulty with reading in the past.

About Me: I am a high school special education teacher at a cyber charter school. This means we are all virtual, all the time! I work in what would be considered a life skills or self-contained program in a typical brick and mortar school. This means my students are working several grade levels below their peers. I mainly teach reading classes and the students rotate through several teachers in our department for other subjects. A lot of my students and their families have chosen virtual learning due to bullying at their local school or a high number of medical and therapy appointments that make attendance at a typical school difficult. I also teach English as a Second Language online to kids in China through several different companies. I can do this before/after school and on the weekends. I have the BEST students in the world :)

Is your school talking about the science of reading? Are you implementing the current research through your districts curriculum?
