Literacy for Diverse Learners
Literacy-Based Learning for Teachers, Leaders, & Students
High-quality professional learning
Each day brings opportunities for observational feedback and professional development. Our team approaches literacy development from a wide range of expertise, including multilingualism, D/HH, and a variety of cognitive realities.
Our specialty is growing others.
Our highly trained team offers the following face-to-face services:
Student literacy development days (ideal before any high stakes testing or assessment tied to SPS);
Teacher observation and feedback (framed in a positive tone from an outsider, feedback can be taken very differently than from high-stakes supervisors and we can take the time for things that many administrators simply do not have time to include in their busy schedules);
Lesson modeling for all core content areas (Some teachers need to see to understand, and we can model a variety of standards and strategies);
Administrator coaching for observation of specialty area teachers in any context (including multilingual students, world language enrichment, language immersion programs, special education, and early childhood); and
Planning and implementing high-quality professional learning (single instance or ongoing with articulation).
Powerful tips & advice
Within two to three sessions of coaching with a teacher, leader, or student progress will be evident. Every contact is an opportunity to grow your staff and students. Every visit will result in recommendations.
