Science of Reading: Tools That Elevate Your Teaching

High-impact reading intervention built for today’s schools.

Get started

Stay at the leading edge of reading instruction with a course that turns Science of Reading research into greater impact with your struggling readers. Lexercise’s Science of Reading: Strategies and Tools for Teachers is a self-paced professional learning course designed to help you be a more effective literacy teacher for students who struggle with reading.

Better training for better reading instruction

Teachers want to give struggling readers the strongest support possible, using methods grounded in the Science of Reading and structured literacy. Yet much professional development is long, abstract, and disconnected from what happens in real classrooms, even as states and districts place more emphasis on literacy approaches aligned with this research.

The Lexercise teacher course is:

  • Rooted in the Science of Reading and structured literacy
  • Focused on classroom application, not just theory
  • Included with Lexercise for Schools, at no extra cost

Teachers learn science-backed reading instruction methods and how to support students who are behind, using tools they can apply immediately in their classrooms.

Self-paced, practical professional learning

Our course gives K–12 educators a clear, accessible foundation in how reading develops and how to teach it effectively, grounded in Science of Reading principles.

  • Audience: K–12 classroom teachers, specialists, and support staff.
  • Focus: Science of Reading, structured literacy, and application to real classrooms.
  • Format: Online, self-paced modules with short lessons, reflection prompts, and understanding checkpoints. Over twelve hours of instruction. 

Teachers can move through the content on their own schedule, without leaving their classrooms or giving up instructional days. If your school uses Lexercise for Schools, access to the course is included at no additional cost.

Course modules at a glance

The course is organized into four modules. Each one builds knowledge and connects it to daily practice.

  • Module 1: Understanding Reading Difficulties
    How reading skills develop, what can go wrong, and how to recognize risk for reading disabilities, including dyslexia.
  • Module 2: The Science of Reading
    The research base behind effective reading instruction and why explicit, systematic teaching works.
  • Module 3: Levels of Language
    How sounds, spelling patterns, word parts, sentence structure, vocabulary, and discourse all contribute to reading and writing development.
  • Module 4: Classroom Application
    Specific strategies for decoding, comprehension, progress monitoring, and building a language-rich classroom.

By the end of the course, teachers have a stronger mental model for how reading works and a clearer plan for how to help students who struggle with reading.
