SparkEd Literacy was created by two former teachers and rising certified structured literacy dyslexia specialists. We are passionate about sharing all that we know about how children to learn to read with you! Our blog is updated biweekly with free information about the science of reading and how we can use research-based practices to teach reading in an engaging and effective way. In addition to our blog, we also design structured literacy resources for teachers and parents that make it easy to teach reading effectively.
