What is the Science of Reading (SOR)?

The Science of Reading isn’t a single program or curriculum—it’s the converging evidence on how the brain learns to read and how educators can use that knowledge to help all students become skilled readers. It draws on findings from cognitive psychology, neuroscience, linguistics, and education and has been developing for decades.

While theories surrounding the Science of Reading are prevalent, most teachers are not trained in a systemic approach to align instruction with the five components of evidence-based reading instruction: (1) phonemic awareness, (2) phonics, (3) fluency, (4) vocabulary, and (5) comprehension.

States across the country have passed legislation mandating that schools implement evidence-based reading instruction. It's more important than ever to understand the research on the science of reading and to get actionable strategies that puts research into practice.
