DESCRIPTION:
As school leaders grapple with the sweeping changes across the country to make changes to literacy instruction based on the science of reading, they must be sure to understand the implementation of these changes. The reality is - there is no quick and easy solution. This is not an issue solved by just buying a new curriculum, or by simply sending all of your teachers to a science of reading training. This is a systems issue that involves leadership at multiple levels. While the teachers provide the instruction and use the curriculum, leaders must work across a school and district to overhaul their systems with assessment, screeners, data use, schedules, interventions, personnel - and long standing beliefs about how we learn to read. Join Brent Conway, an Assistant Superintendent and former Principal, as he reviews some of the leadership aspects related to systems that drive the successful implementation of a tiered literacy approach based on the science of reading.
