Hi listeners, it's Susan here. Just in time for the school year, I have a brand new resource to tell you about.

Science of Reading, a new teacher's guide. This free e-book gives you the critical information you need,

including a detailed breakdown of the reading rope and the 10 foundational science of reading principles.

It also provides key information on dyslexia, assessment,

serving multilingual learners, and so much more.

It's packed with beautiful diagrams,

a perfect compliment to the podcast if I do say so myself.

Welcome to Science of Reading the podcast.

I'm your host, Susan Lambert.

As the reading science movement continues to grow even during this unprecedented time,

it's so important to stay focused on what

it takes to develop confident and capable readers. As we've learned, change can happen fast. That makes it

even more important to stay connected and learn from each other. The more we learn and listen,

the more prepared will be to lead.

Together, let's voice challenges and take action. Our topic today is instructional loss and reading

for our youngest of learners. I talk with Danielle DeMico, Director of Learning Science here at Amplify, about this loss of reading instruction, what we see in our data, and what we can do to support students in this unprecedented moment. Here at Amplify, we talk about this as loss of instruction, not a learning loss. After all, you can't learn if you have not had the opportunity.

I trust you find this conversation encouraging. We can make a difference. And P.S., shout out to

practitioners across the country for making the pivot and putting kids learning front and center.

Hi, Danielle. Thanks so much for joining us today. Thank and center. Hi, Danielle.

Thanks so much for joining us today.

Thank you for having me, Susan.
