In this episode of The Writing Glitch, I speak with Jacqueline Davies, the founder of Clever Noodle, a company that creates games aligned with the science of reading. We discuss the importance of evidence-based reading instruction, the role of games in literacy development, and the challenges of addressing the literacy crisis in our schools. Jacqueline shares her journey of helping her son overcome reading difficulties, inspiring her to create Clever Noodle. We also delve into the importance of early intervention, the benefits of multi-sensory learning, and the need for a comprehensive approach to literacy instruction. Join us for an insightful conversation about how we can empower all children to become successful readers.
