Brilliant keynote by Jamie Metsala discussing the Science of Reading, showing how Ontarioβs current guidelines for diagnosing dyslexia are at odds with evidence- IQ should not be part of dyslexia diagnosis #ReEDTO25
Dr. Jamie Metsala stands beside a screen, giving a keynote lecture under a massive stained glass window in a church at ResearchEd in Toronto.
At #redTO25, @j-metsala.bsky.social is delivering a great summary of the history of reading instruction and the alignment and misalignment with research along the way.
A failing systemβManitoba educators and families report a lack of effective reading instruction and interventions. When we do not explicitly teach the written code for spoken language, we fail far too many students. www.winnipegfreepress.com/local/2025/0...
What about Writing? Looks like researchED Canada is filling another hole in the existing Canadian K-12 curriculum. Dr. Leslie Laud, founder of Think SRSD, will be speaking at researchED Canada Toronto (June 6-7/25). The Stellar Cast just got even better! #SRSD #cdned #ONTed #writingrevolution

This was a great conversation!
Check out this episode of Chalk & Talk! Anna and I talk about getting all students off to a good trajectory in reading - focused on instruction, interventions, screening, advocacy, changes in teacher support & Faculties of Ed. β and of course, some thoughts on math too!
This episode was so excellent. Thank you Dr. @j-metsala.bsky.social and Dr. Anna Stokke!!
Other provinces shouldnβt need human rights inquiries. Letβs get moving! A must-listen for those in provinces where systemic change in literacy has yet to take hold.

Canadian students have struggled to read and write. That stops in 2025. macleans.ca/the-year-ahe...
What's in store for Canada in 2025? The people, trends, ideas and everything else that matters in the year ahead. macleans.ca/the-year-ahe...
Hope to see everyone in Toronto in June!
Wow @j-metsala.bsky.social !
βA one-time meeting and a box of materials wonβt cut it. [Teachers] need learning opportunities, resources and in-class coaching. And they should not have to spend their own time and money seeking out training.β
