This initiative focuses on fostering a comprehensive literacy program led by informed teacher teams and school administrators. By building prior knowledge and systematically increasing text complexity, we can effectively address reading and writing instruction. Essential components include scheduling interventions, collaborative skills development, and the utilization of data-driven decision-making. With frameworks from the Big Ideas in Reading and the National Institute for Literacy, educators will access reliable evidence-based resources to enhance strategies for reading instruction, fostering greater student achievement.
