Science of Reading: 
Mapping the brain has revealed a great deal about how to make the skill of reading accessible to ALL students.  BWRSD teachers are receiving or have completed training in the Science of Reading as we work to ensure students receive the most effective instruction.

Our math teachers use the iReady curriculum in grades K-6 and one of their instructional routines is called Try-Discuss-Connect. Click here to read about it and try with your student.
