Create a 12-15 slide digital presentation for teachers-in-training describing how the brain learns to read based on the science of reading research.
Begin your presentation with a brief introduction explaining the following:
The stages of reading development
The stages of writing development
The connection between English language systems (e.g., phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics) and literacy
For each of the following theoretical models of reading development, explain the key components and how young learners move through the phases of each theoretical model as they develop proficient reading skills:
The Simple View of Reading
Scarborough’s Reading Rope
Four-Part Processor Model
Carol Tolman’s Hourglass
Ehri’s Phases
Include a title page, presenter’s notes, and reference page.
Presenter’s notes are required for each content slide. Presentation must include a title slide at the beginning, and a reference slide with documentation of resources at the end. The title slide and reference slide are not included in the total number of slides.
