Join us for The Reading League Summit 2025, "The Science of Reading: With Growing Awareness Comes Incomplete Understandings."
Now that the science of reading has been raised to a level of conscious awareness across the country, schools are eager to put it into practice.
The Simple View of Reading equation is one of the first things educators learn about in their science of reading journeys. Yet, how well do they understand its implications, and what do the researchers have to say?
Dr. Maria Murray will give the opening keynote, followed by four panel discussions that uncover consensus and unresolved questions.
Panel discussions include:
• The Simple View of Reading as a Starting Point for Understanding Reading Development in All Learners, moderated by Dr. José Viana
• Language Comprehension, moderated by Dr. Tiffany Hogan
• Word Recognition, moderated by Dr. Louisa Moats
• Reading Comprehension, moderated by Dr. Mitchell Brookins
