Training delivered in partnership with Crafting Minds · craftingmindsgroup.com

The curriculum

Evidence based in Science. Not just Aligned.

Training goes beyond scripts. You’ll learn the research behind Dr. Maryanne Wolf’s model of the reading brain, and why every RAVE-O component is there for a reason.

The POSSUM approach

Why integrating six components phonics alone.

Science to Story

How research translates into daily classroom practice.

Heterogeneity of dyslexia

Every struggling reader is different — training reflects that.

Deep reading processes

Inference, empathy, and critical analysis, not just decoding.

Crafting Minds partnership

“We teach you not only how to teach reading, but why each element is emphasized and connected to simulate the reading brain.”
