Maryanne Wolf
“Comprehension processes [for young readers] grow.... [when] they leave the surface layers of text to explore the wondrous terrain that lies beneath it.

The reading expert Richard Vacca describes this shift as a development from "fluent decoders" to "strategic readers"--"readers who know how to activate prior knowledge before, during and after reading, to decide what's important in a text"....”
Maryanne Wolf, Proust and the Squid: The Story and Science of the Reading Brain

“Cognitive development principles, including Piaget's Stages of Cognitive Development and Vygotsky's Zone of Proximal Development, guide transformative teaching by recognizing that students progress through distinct cognitive stages and thus require tailored instruction and support to advance their learning effectively.”
Asuni LadyZeal
