🚨 6 literacy myths are still shaping instruction—and holding students back. Beliefs about who can learn to read, when literacy should begin, and what progress looks like directly impact opportunity—especially for students with disabilities. Research tells a different story: reading failure is preventable. In this blog, Maureen Donnelly, M.Ed. explores the myths that persist in education and what evidence-based literacy instruction actually requires. If we want equitable literacy outcomes, we have to challenge the assumptions behind our teaching. Read the full blog: bit.ly/4tZXpbw #LiteracyEducation #ScienceOfReading #AAC #InclusiveEducation

The Science of Reading has transformed literacy instruction. But here’s the question we must keep asking: How does it apply to students with significant cognitive disabilities and extensive support needs? On March 10 at 6 PM CDT, Dr. Karen Erickson will lead a live webinar: ReadtopiaGO, Comprehensive Emergent Literacy, and the Science of Reading. She’ll outline the two conditions necessary for emergent literacy learning success and show how instruction grounded in the science of learning reading can be systematic, meaningful, and accessible for ALL learners. If literacy is a right, comprehensive emergent literacy is non-negotiable.
