LETRS Volume 1

The LETRS® (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) is an empowering professional learning that provides teachers a deep knowledge to be literacy and language experts in the science of reading. Using the Lexia LETRS® suite participants will complete dynamic online learning with activities to reinforce concepts, watch videos of experts teaching, and learn practical ways to apply learning to the classrooms every day. The facilitator will support participants face-to-face with efficient pacing to complete online modules successfully, provide context and examples about the readings in the text, and guide them on using the Bridge to Practice activities to make necessary connections back to the classroom.
