What educators are saying
Description
Hollis Scarborough, a literacy and language development researcher, published the Reading Rope in 2001 to illustrate the complexity of skilled reading. Scarborough defines skilled reading as the “fluent execution and coordination of language comprehension and word recognition.” This visual helps one see the complexity of learning to read. Although reading may look like a “single rope,” it comprises many strands.
