As the body of evidence grows in support of implementing reading instruction that is aligned with the science of how children learn to read, Emerge! draws on extensive research and insights from 16 renowned literacy experts and more than 6,400 teachers, students and administrators to provide a next-level approach to science-based reading instruction.
“ Emerge! ushers in a new era of literacy curriculum and instruction – one built for the complex realities of the modern classroom,” said Sean Ryan, President of McGraw Hill’s School Group. “Grounded in the proven science of how young minds acquire written language and powered by real-time data that informs the personal learning journey for each student, this research-based program, delivered by teachers, helps students build the skills needed to become confident readers, expressive writers and critical thinkers from the very start.”
Emerge! offers a comprehensive learning experience that empowers teachers and students with flexible tools and resources to meet their unique needs. Insights captured from classroom activities, assessments, observations and other sources enhance personalization, while dynamic reporting tools and dashboards synthesize and analyze the data to intelligently inform instructional decisions for educators, saving them valuable time in the classroom.

“Through this curriculum, students will emerge into the world of literacy, building their foundational skills such as phonemic awareness and letter knowledge in addition to grade-level rigorous expectations around decoding, fluency, vocabulary and comprehension,” said one of the program’s authors, Katie Pace Miles, PhD. “For educators, every moment provides the explicit, systematic instruction needed to make learning as easy and efficient as possible, including routines that reduce students’ cognitive load and promote their growth, confidence and agency as independent learners.”
Starting in the 2025-26 school year, Emerge! will be available to pilot in school districts nationwide. Samples and digital course demos are now available. Emerge! will be available for full classroom implementations beginning in the 2026-27 school year.
