Abstract
The purpose of this symposium is to present studies of four topics that warrant additional attention in an effort to broaden the science of reading (SoR) discussion beyond word reading and phonics. The four papers present research on the effects of an elementary reading and writing curriculum, a review of teacher preparation to teach code-related reading skills, and conceptual papers on the roles of reading motivation and instruction for multilingual learners in the SoR discussion.
