New York’s teachers union is rolling out statewide training on the science of reading, a phonics-first method now backed by Gov. Kathy Hochul, according to Capital Tonight.
The program aims to improve how educators teach reading by focusing on how students learn best — not just what they learn. The union says success will be tracked over time.
The shift follows years of changing strategies in reading instruction across schools.
