Simplifying Science of Reading Instruction: A Backdoor Approach for Easy Accessibility
Research on the science of reading brings us closer to understanding how the brain learns to read, but what about how the brain actually LEARNS? This distinction is important, especially considering the "end user" is a 5-year-old eating his shoe and licking the carpet...or an upper-grade struggling reader already at risk. Abstract terms like fricatives, nasalizations, trigraphs, and diphthongs can be overwhelming, even for teachers! According to Harvard neuroscientist, Dr. Immordino-Yang, "It's neurobiologically impossible for kids to think deeply about things they don't care about." Our brains are wired to make connections and it's easier to learn and store information when there's an emotional hook to hang it on. The affective neural networks are primed long before the executive processing centers are formed. By aligning abstract phonics skills with feelings, like having a crush or feeling left out, we can leverage social-emotional intelligence to fast-track reading mastery for all!

Speakers
Katie Garner
Katie Garner, M.Ed., author of Secret Stories® Cracking the Reading Code with the Brain in Mind, is an internationally known education keynote speaker and literacy consultant with 30 years of experience working in classrooms around the world. Her “backdoor to the brain” approach to fast-tracking phonics skills for reading shifts the paradigms associated with traditional literacy instruction. Katie's fast-paced, dynamic presentations spotlight “brain-changing” strategies for boosting existing reading/phonics curriculum by aligning science of reading-based practice with the brain’s systems for learning. Her practical and proven methods have been shared in both lecture and panel discussions at Harvard University and MIT, and have been the subject of numerous professional journal articles and publications.
