Close literacy achievement gaps across grades 6-12. Part of the Every Teacher Is a Literacy Teacher series, this resource highlights how English language arts (ELA) educators can work collaboratively to combat literacy concerns and improve student skill development. The authors provide, describe, and give examples of many literacy-based strategies that you can immediately begin integrating into your ELA classroom.

  • Examine the role that professional learning communities (PLCs) play in supporting and advancing the instructional practices of educators through collaborative teamwork.
  • Discover ready-to-use, adaptable strategies to develop students' prereading, during-reading, and post-reading skills through guided practice.
  • Learn to enhance student writing competencies and create a common literacy language across all disciplines.
  • Study techniques for providing immediate assistance and feedback to students.
  • Receive guidance on designing and implementing assessments.
