The Simple View of Reading: It emphasizes that reading comprehension is a combination of two essential components: decoding (word recognition) and language comprehension. Both components are necessary for proficient reading.

The 3D Cognitive Model: It highlights the three dimensions of reading: word recognition, language comprehension, and cognitive processes. These dimensions interact and influence each other during reading.

The Reading Brain: Research using neuroimaging techniques has provided insights into the brain regions involved in reading and how they support different aspects of reading, such as phonological processing and comprehension.

Dyslexia: It is a specific learning disorder characterized by difficulties in accurate and fluent word recognition. Understanding the science of reading can inform effective interventions and support for individuals with dyslexia.

Dual Store Model of Memory: It explains how information is processed and stored in short-term and long-term memory. Effective reading instruction ensures that students develop both automaticity and meaningful comprehension.

Anatomy of a Lesson: The Science of Reading informs instructional practices that incorporate explicit and systematic instruction in phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension strategies. Effective lessons are structured, scaffolded, and provide ample opportunities for practice and application.
