The Hard Truths and Persistent Myths Every Educator Must Know About the Science of Reading Featuring the Lion of Literacy Dr. Reid Lyon

Value

In this episode with Reid Lyon, we go straight to the source of the modern reading research movement. You hear firsthand what the research actually revealed about how children learn to read, where implementation has gone wrong, and why misunderstanding the science continues to create confusion in classrooms. This is not secondhand interpretation. It is direct insight into the evidence, the history behind it, and the consequences of getting it wrong. You walk away with deeper clarity about literacy acquisition and stronger conviction about what matters most.

Promise

We will not water this down.

We will not rewrite history.

We will not soften the hard truths about research and implementation.

We will examine the science.

We will confront the misinterpretations.

We will connect the evidence to real classroom practice.

No spin.

No agenda.

Just research, accountability, and clarity you can stand on.
