95 Principles to Practice—Literacy
The complete system for turning science of reading training into lasting classroom practice.
Close the gap between knowledge and classroom practice
Even after districts invest in science of reading professional learning, classroom implementation can remain inconsistent and hard to sustain.
95 Principles to Practice™—Literacy bridges that gap, ensuring teachers can translate their science of reading knowledge into real classroom practice. In collaborative professional learning communities led by your in-house literacy experts, educators refresh their knowledge, receive expert guidance, and actively plan for immediate classroom application.
Where understanding becomes daily practice
Develop in-house literacy experts, then provide them with the resources and support to train others so science of reading principles take root in daily instruction.
Turn principles into classroom routines
Structured practice cycles, reflection tools, and collaborative problem-solving that turn science of reading knowledge into what teachers do tomorrow.
Implement on your terms
Designed to fit any schedule, any starting point, and any science of reading training already in use.
Build system-wide capacity and coherence
Empower in-house facilitators to drive consistent implementation across classrooms and schools.
Sustain results over time
Reinforce and sustain high-integrity practice over time with structured supports and shared look-fors—protecting your investment.
How it works
Build capacity that scales
We train your facilitators. They guide your educators. Together, they change literacy instruction across every classroom.
Everything your facilitators, educators, and leaders need
A comprehensive facilitator toolkit—ten 45-minute modules with training, PLC facilitation materials, educator resources, and leadership implementation supports—covering the science of reading’s most essential elements.
Facilitator training
Build the expertise to lead. Three days of hands-on training—in-person or live virtual—that builds the skills and confidence to lead structured PLCs that drive lasting instructional change.
Facilitator presentation files
Run sessions that land. Module-aligned decks with objectives, visuals, discussion prompts, and activity guidance—so facilitators can focus on leading.
Facilitator’s guide
Never wonder what comes next. Agendas, talking points, and facilitation supports for consistent, high-quality PLC sessions.
Educator learning and application companion
From session to classroom, the same day. Structured activities, planning tools, and reflection prompts that support immediate application.
Fidelity and monitoring guide
Protect the investment. Tools for consistent observation, actionable feedback, and shared accountability—so PLC learning translates to sustained classroom practice.
The science of reading is not new—but translating it into daily classroom practice remains one of education’s greatest challenges. 95 Principles to Practice—Literacy is the missing link: the sustained, systems-level, capacity-building professional learning that converts knowledge into practice and practice into measurable student outcomes.

A guide to science of reading implementation for school leaders
Effective Science of Reading implementation isn’t just about choosing evidence-based materials—it’s about building a strategic, district-wide vision and support system that sustains lasting instructional change.
The difference between purchasing materials and achieving transformational results lies in intentional, systematic implementation that ensures programs are used with integrity.
