To purchase this program; districts should purchase the Literacy Leaders Network, Project #218, from the CESA #4 2013-2014 catalog.
Almost 7,000 students drop out of high school every day (Alliance for Excellent Education, 2006). One of the most commonly cited reasons for this is that students simply do not have the literacy skills to keep up with the rigorous curriculum demands as they progress through school. This features current
research on literacy assessment, instruction, and Intervention.
Focus: Reviewing current resources, learning and practicing best practices in reading and learning strategies, and programming for professional
development back in districts.
Group Members: Reading specialists, literacy coaches or district literacy leaders who work with grades K-12 teachers or lead teachers in the district.
What: Topics include sharing of instructional best practices including workshop models, formative assessment tools, and research-based interventions
including the CCBC event. Time will be allotted during each meeting to establish a framework for professional development roll out to be conducted by each district literacy leader.
Cost: $750 per district teams of four for all three events.
Resources: A copy of a current resource about literacywill be processed during the networkmeetings. In the network meeting technology will be infused in the learning environment.
