  • More than Phonics: Fluency and Comprehension with Natalie Wexler

    More than Phonics: Fluency and Comprehension with Natalie Wexler
    2026/02/01
    Learning to read isn’t just about sounding out words even though the biggest part of reading instruction that gets spoken about publicly is phonics. Education journalist and author Natalie Wexler explains why in this episode. She points out that at a certain point student's reading progress flattens out unless they haven't also had teaching that helps to build fluency, background knowledge, vocabulary and comprehension. Wexler talks about how some children can 'read' words but still not understand what they're reading.
