Choosing a Reading Curriculum with Dr. Maria Murray, Founder & CEO of The Reading League
Q: How do we get buy-in from teachers when adopting a new curriculum?
Leadership is key; there needs to be a transparent process that involves teachers in the decision, focuses on the rationale for the choice, and provides thorough training and support throughout the implementation.
Choosing a Reading Curriculum with Dr. Maria Murray, Founder & CEO of The Reading League
Q: What are some red flags to look for when choosing a curriculum?
Red flags include practices not aligned with the science of reading, lack of effective assessments, and failure to provide adequate teacher support. It's important to check for those red flags in non-negotiable sections of curriculum guidelines.
Choosing a Reading Curriculum with Dr. Maria Murray, Founder & CEO of The Reading League
Q: What are some of the most important things that schools should clarify before looking at specific curriculum options?
Schools should first understand the weight of responsibility that comes with curriculum decisions and consider creating resources to aid decision making. Key considerations include ensuring the curriculum addresses both foundational skills and comprehension, understanding the complexity of reading instruction, and prioritizing proper assessments.
Supporting Struggling Readers: What Schools, Teachers, and Families Need to Know
Q: If you could change one thing about how schools support children with specific learning disabilities, what would it be?

Supporting Struggling Readers: What Schools, Teachers, and Families Need to Know
Q: What misunderstandings still exist about dyslexia and specific learning disabilities?
