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.

This is Susan Lambert and welcome to Science of Reading the podcast.

On this episode, we're continuing to explore how systems can best support early literacy instruction by taking a look at one of the country's largest school districts.

The school district of Philadelphia has been embracing the science of reading, and on this episode, we speak with the district's deputy chief of curriculum and instruction.

Dr. Nye Shawanna Francis Thompson.

Dr. Nye talks about the challenges of implementing the science of reading across a large district.

For listeners who have enjoyed our recent conversations about implementation science, this will be a great look at what this really looks like on the ground.

Dr. Nye also talks about her own background as a former special education teacher and as a mother of a young reader.

Dr. Nye also shares why she believes it's so important to focus on our students with disabilities

and how literacy is key to liberation.

Here's my conversation with Dr. Nye.

Well, Dr. Nye, thank you so much for joining us on today's episode.

Thank you, Susan.

We're going to talk a little bit

about who you are and what you're doing there in Philadelphia. So our listeners would just love it
