In today’s classrooms, educators are constantly searching for strategies that not only engage students but also produce lasting results. Two key resources—John Hattie's extensive research on what works in education and the growing body of knowledge known as the science of reading—offer powerful insights into how students learn best. But how do these two frameworks intersect, and what can they teach us about improving literacy outcomes?
