    Join us for this informative and enlightening podcast as we delve into the complexities and nuances of the Simple View of Reading (SVR). Our distinguished guest, Dr. Wesley Hoover, will explore how SVR remains a foundational cognitive theory that effectively captures the critical relationship between language comprehension and word recognition in determining reading comprehension.Dr. Hoover will discuss the key elements of the SVR, clarifying its purpose as a cognitive theory rather than a mere description or heuristic. Our conversation will reveal common misconceptions about reading, emphasizing that while it may seem simple, the interplay of its two critical components—word recognition and language comprehension—reveals a much richer complexity. Dr. Hoover will also introduce the Cognitive Foundations Framework (CFF), an extension of the SVR that expands our understanding of the skills and abilities required for achieving effective reading.Whether you’re a teacher, an administrator, or simply passionate about literacy, this podcast offers a deeper understanding of what it truly means to learn to read, the cognitive capacities involved, and how we can better support learners on their journey.Listeners will learn:An understanding of the SVR and its importance in reading comprehension researchThe complexities and limitations of the SVR, including some unanswered questions about reading skills and developmentThe roles of word recognition and language comprehension as the two essential proximal capacities necessary for reading successDetails about the Cognitive Foundations Framework (CFF) and how it serves to expand the SVR’s insights about reading skillsEffective strategies and approaches for reading instruction and remediation based on the insights derived from the SVR and CFFPractical applications for educators and parents to better support learners and foster reading proficiencyTune in for this thought-provoking conversation that will challenge assumptions and celebrate the intricacies of reading! Listeners will leave with a richer understanding of the cognitive foundations of reading and how to apply this knowledge in various educational contexts.

  • Not Just Behind—Stuck: Helping Students Cross the Bridge to Skilled Reading
    Supporting older, novice readers requires more than just phonics or comprehension strategies—it demands a multicomponent intervention approach. Students need structured instruction in vocabulary, syntax, text processing, and writing when working with complex texts. But for this to be effective, intervention must be intentional, well-planned, and fully supported.During this episode, Dr. Mitchell Brookins, a nationally recognized literacy practitioner, shares insights from a middle school in New Orleans, where a multicomponent intervention transformed how students engaged with rigorous texts. He breaks down why successful intervention isn’t just about what happens in the classroom—it also requires:✅ A Structured Framework—A clear instructional model that ensures students get explicit, systematic instruction in vocabulary, syntax, text processing, and writing.✅ Intentional Text Selection—Choosing texts that are both rigorous and accessible, ensuring they build students’ literacy skills while maintaining engagement.✅ A Strong Coaching System—Teachers need consistent guidance and professional learning to sustain and refine their instructional practices—intervention is too vital for teachers to navigate alone.If you’re working with older struggling readers, this episode will challenge conventional approaches to intervention and equip you with the tools to help students succeed with complex texts—no matter their starting point.
