“In alignment with science of reading research, phonics instruction must follow a defined scope and sequence with ample review and repetition. At least 50% of a phonics lesson should be spent on applying a skill to reading and writing. It’s in the application that the learning sticks. Decodable texts are the critical application tool.” – Wiley Blevins, Ed.M., Literacy Expert
