Denise Eide

Denise Eide

Denise Eide is the president and founder of Logic of English, a mission-driven publisher that empowers students of all ages to become fluent readers and spellers. Denise is passionate about providing all students access to evidence-based literacy education. When her sons struggled to learn to read, Denise discovered that one of the core instructional tools used to help students with dyslexia is to teach them how English really works. Upon seeing her sons go from nonreaders to reading chapter books within months, she decided to write Uncovering the Logic of English, an award-winning book about reading. She continues her life work of sharing the power of knowing how English works by speaking, writing, and publishing.


Session Description

How the Brain Learns to Read and What It Tells about Best Practices for Teaching  
Denise Eide

(Spelling, Components of Literacy Instruction, Adolescent Literacy, General Science of Reading)
How does the brain learn the complex skill of reading? Together we will explore what neuroscience teaches us about how the brains of strong readers and struggling readers differ. We will also discover the relationship between the Simple View of Reading and the neuroscience of reading. Using this powerful information, we will then put into context what this means for helping students master the five essential skills of reading: phonemic awareness, systematic phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension. 

Target Audience(s): Early Childhood (Birth – 4 years), Elementary, Middle/Jr. High, High School

Education Track(s): New to the Science of Reading, Advanced Science of Reading, Leadership
