The COVID-19 pandemic brought a long-standing challenge in U.S. schools to the forefront: more than two-thirds of students cannot read at grade level. Alarmingly, if students are not proficient in reading by the end of third grade, they are more likely to drop out. This realization has sparked a growing interest in the science of reading, a decades-long body of interdisciplinary research that examines the multifaceted nature of reading development. By embedding the science of reading into instructional practices, teachers can ensure students recognize words and understand their meaning—thus supporting reading fluency.

This book consolidates decades of research on effective literacy instruction. It provides a clear model for designing effective reading instruction that integrates the science of reading and evidence-based strategies. Teachers and educators can learn to confidently implement these strategies in the classroom.
