The Matthew Effect in reading is a powerful reminder of why early support matters. 📚

When children become stronger readers, they read more, build vocabulary, gain knowledge, and continue to grow. When children struggle with reading, they often read less, which can cause the gap between them and their peers to grow over time.

But this is important: the gap is not inevitable.

Early identification, explicit instruction, and timely intervention can change a child’s reading trajectory. We don't need to wait for children to fail before giving them the support they need.

The earlier we recognize a reading difficulty and respond with effective instruction, the better. 💛

New research: dyslexia fonts don't actually make a difference.
You've likely seen fonts like OpenDyslexic or Dyslexie promoted as a solution for dyslexic readers. A new meta-analysis looked at 15 studies and nearly 700 participants, comparing these fonts to standard ones like Arial and Times New Roman. The result: no meaningful difference in reading speed or accuracy.
However, this doesn't mean font choice doesn't matter at all - good spacing and clear layout help everyone. But a special font isn't going to solve the reading barriers dyslexic students face. What actually makes a difference is well established: structured, explicit teaching of literacy skills, assistive technology like text-to-speech, extra time in exams, and proper accommodations. That's where the evidence points, and that's what we keep advocating for.
