Background forunderstanding our project

Due to a complexinterplay

Reading isexperiencedependent_______Children arewired for sound,but print is anoptional accessorythat must bepainstakinglybolted on.

It took ourspecies 2,000 yearsto make the cognitivebreakthroughs

necessary to learn to

read with an alphabet;today our childrenhave to reach thosesame insights about

print in roughly2,000 days. ~ MaryanneWolf

Due to a complexinterplayof genetic and environmental factors,

not all children accomplish this monumentaltask at the same time or with

the same degree of proficiency

of genetic and environmental factors,

not all children accomplish this monumentaltask at the same time or with

the same degree of proficiency

Cerebrodiversity:ShermanSmall neural differencesleading to cognitive strengths &

weakness that differ from personto person. Adaptive advantagefor our species.Humanityscollective neural heterogeneity.


34/44

Due to a complex interplay

of genetic and environmental factors, not allchildren are ready to start this monumentaltask or will achieve it at the same time .


Learning toreadlike Red Sox baseball,like Red Sox baseball,
