Supporting Early Literacy and Dyslexia Within an MTSS Practice
Some students pick up reading with ease, while others struggle to make sense of the words on the page. If you’ve taught early literacy, you’ve seen this firsthand. Thanks to the science of reading and research on brain development, we now understand why this happens. More importantly, we know the key indicators to watch for and the most effective ways to support students at risk for reading difficulties.
In this presentation, we break down what dyslexia is and what we know about what’s happening in the brain when children are learning how to read—and when they aren’t. We’ll also discuss how a MTSS practice can help us proactively identify students at risk for dyslexia and get them the early and targeted support they need.

- The inner workings of early literacy
