Listen "Debunking Reading Myths"
Episode Synopsis
Dr Kimberly Berens is on the #ReadingWithYourKids #Podcast to celebrate the power of behavior science for accelerating reading skills. She discusses common myths around learning, including the myth that children learn to read based on their age and development rather than through instruction. She explains how this myth has negatively impacted students. Dr. Berens also talks about using the science of learning, including behavior science, neuroscience, and epigenetics, to understand that reading is a skill that must be taught. She emphasizes using phonics and decoding strategies with students of any age who have gaps in foundational reading skills. Dr. Berens promotes taking a scientific approach to education by closely tracking student progress and making data-driven instructional changes.
