In Unit 2, we will focus on understanding “The Speech Sounds of English.” 

A cohort of educators will embark on an in-depth professional development in the Science of Reading to support all learners.  Participating in this cohort will increase their knowledge of tools used to assess and teach language and literacy skills to every student.  This learning supports any curriculum as it is intended to bridge educators' deep understanding of literacy with strategies that are evidence-based to support learning.
