Accelerate Literacy Growth in Oregon With Instruction Built on the Science of Reading
Where are you on your science of reading journey?
Oregon educators have debated the best approach to reading instruction for decades. The Oregon Department of Education has established the Early Literacy Success Initiative as a top priority. The Initiative outlines strategies and best practices to improve literacy outcomes that align to evidence-based instruction.
Many are now turning to the science of reading as a solution to improve student literacy after recent Oregon NAEP test scores confirmed only 29% of fourth grade students are reading at grade level.
"Teachers are the most important factor in student success. Informed teachers can explain language to students, including sounds, spellings, and word meanings. They use lessons based on reading science and understand the process of learning to read and write. Research proves it. Science matters."
