Susan Neuman, EdD, joins the READ Podcast for a discussion on integrating rich content, background knowledge, and language into literacy instruction. She breaks down code-based and meaning-based reading skills and explains the importance of background knowledge, language, and vocabulary within a comprehensive lens of reading instruction. She discusses her work and passion for building literacy in communities through what she calls a “360 surround” approach to ensuring students have access to high-quality and diverse print outside of school. Dr. Neuman offers practical implications for educators and community members to educate and empower young readers in their classrooms and communities.
