Abstract

This study investigates the effectiveness of using The Science of Reading in reading and phonics instruction to teach students how to read. The Science of Reading is a relatively new concept and idea to my placement, as they are currently in its second year of implementation. The Science of Reading is used to assist students in decoding words, learning phonics, and helping them read more effectively. This idea is currently in its “development” stage in my placement. Informal assessments, running records, and anecdotal notes were taken from three students (one low, medium, and high-level reader) to determine the effectiveness of its usage. Limitations could be attendance and class size. My current findings are that the use of The Science of Reading has and will continue to help grow a student’s reading strength in the classroom.

The effects of The Science of Reading on specific students
