The presentation will focus on how children learn to read words and why some children struggle. This knowledge will be used to design more educationally relevant assessments and to guide intervention recommendations. Studies consistently show that the most commonly used reading interventions provide limited benefits. However, research has also shown that there are approaches available that yield very large and sustained reading gains for weak readers.
Learning Objectives:
At the end of the session, participants will be able to:
1. Explain to teachers and parents how word-level reading skills develop and why some students struggle with those skills.
2. Assemble a battery of assessments that will allow school psychologists to pinpoint precisely why a student is struggling in reading.
3. Recommend to general and special educational teachers and administrators the most highly effective prevention and intervention strategies.
