Our Literacy Program
We follow the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project model. The mission of the TCRWP is to help students become avid and skilled readers, writers, and inquirers. Our literacy curriculum uses a workshop model, performance assessments, and learning progressions to accelerate progress. Through teacher-directed mini lessons, students learn a skill or strategy together, and then have opportunities to apply that to their individual “just right” books or individual writing.
Students are reading nonfiction books on the Epic! app and collecting facts about their topics. Then, they will organize their information into categories.
