| 8/14/26 | Quiet, Piggy: A Trumpian Response to Science of Reading Critics | If you’re looking for accessible, research-based information that slices through the endless loads of overly worded baloney, I would encourage you to subscribe to my free Substack, The Reading Instruction Show.

| 7/31/26 | Recognizing Words, the Three-Cueing System, and Identifying Words | • Purpose: Readers will understand how the three cueing system is used to recognize words.• Behavioral objective: After reading this chapter, the reader will throw a pie in the face of any clown who suggests that the three-cueing system (a) is a strategy, (b) is an approach to reading instruction, or (c) that it teaches students to guess at words. | 13m 44s | ||||||
| 7/17/26 | How NAEP Created a Perpetual Reading Crisis | The NAEP proficiency levels were arbitrarily defined (Bracey, 2008; Ravitch, 2012; Reinking, Hruby, & Risko, 2023). These levels should be interpreted with extreme caution (Vaulton, 2025). The National Center for Education Statistics website provides three reasons for this (NCES, 2025):1. Proficiency levels are based on desired expectations. Meaning that these levels are aspirational not mathematical.2. These proficiency levels are currently being used on a trial basis.3. Further evidence is needed to determine if these proficiency levels are “reasonable, valid, and informative”.If you’re looking for accessible, research-based information that slices through the endless loads of overly worded baloney, I would encourage you to subscribe to my free Substack, The Reading Instruction Show.
