Literacy is not just Reading

StudentsWe have all heard the term literacy, or literate, with regard to reading abilities. However, literacy was broken into six components by the National Reading Panel(2000):

            • reading
            • writing
            • listening
            • collaborating
            • critical thinking
            • oral presentation.

As a result, we are looking at opportunities to support your classroom in all six areas. Our online resources will provide you with a series of best practices in all aspects of literacy. We hope that you will continue to share your favorite resources and concerns with us!
