Episode Synopsis

Join Alice Wiggins, vice president of instructional design and products at UnboundEd, in the second episode of our Deconstructing the Rope series as she unwinds word recognition, a strand of Scarborough’s Reading Rope. Alice also highlights the importance of explicit phonics instruction and urges listeners to advocate for an aligned curriculum to bring forth a systematic approach to reading for all students.Quotes:“By explicitly teaching sound spellings, we’re strengthening students’ abilities to read so they can learn more.”“For equity’s sake, we want to teach reading in a way that we cast the widest net possible and support the most students possible.”Resources:UnboundEdThe Reading Mind: A Cognitive Approach to Understanding How the Mind Reads by Daniel WillinghamLanguage at the Speed of Sight: How We Read, Why So Many Can't, and What Can Be Done About It by Mark SeidenbergInternational Dyslexia AssociationThe Reading LeagueWant to discuss the episode?
