In this episode of Evidence in the Wild, I explore two research-backed reading interventions that have shown strong results for students with dyslexia and those struggling with literacy: Pennsylvania’s Dyslexia Screening and Early Literacy Intervention Program and Reading Recovery.
I also reflect on how programs like these could have supported my own learning journey and why tools like the What Works Clearinghouse are essential for helping educators and leaders identify and elevate practices that truly make a difference.
