From Theory to the Classroom: A Roadmap for Implementing The Structured Literacy Playbook

While the "Science of Reading" provides the why of literacy instruction, many educators struggle with the how of daily implementation. Join one of the authors of The Structured Literacy Playbook for an interactive session designed to bridge the gap between research-based principles and classroom practice.This session introduces the POSSUM model and the phases of word recognition as a framework for systematic instruction. Participants will engage in a strategic walkthrough of a "Game Plan" architecture, learning to move beyond isolated skills into end-to-end lesson delivery. Using diagnostic case studies, participants will see how to select appropriate decodable texts and instructional entry points. Attendees will leave with a clear roadmap for delivering effective, efficient, and structured lessons that prioritize clarity and student mastery.
