The Science of Reading: Join us Wednesday, December 11 at 5pm in Room D for a special talk on the Science of Reading. 

During our Science of Reading night, we will take a look at how our brains learn to read and why some students may struggle with this process. We’ll follow the progression of reading skills from pre-reading to reading to learn and engage in learning activities that you can use at home wherever your student is on their reading journey. This will be an interactive session lead by Miss Becca. 

Miss Becca has been teaching reading to young kids for a decade and finds great joy in watching the magic happen as students become proficient readers.
