Join Brad Nguyen as he shares lessons learned from Docklands Primary School’s first year in operation.

Reading is a complex skill involving multiple processes, even at the single word level. In this talk, Distinguished Professor Anne Castles gave an overview of what is known about how words are read and learned in the context of an explicit cognitive model. She then illustrated how such cognitive models can provide a “roadmap” for teachers, guiding assessment and informing how best to teach word reading for maximum effects.
