Integrated Literacy

Students reading and writing

 

Literacy is the key to a strong, robust, and rewarding life - both personally and professionally. 

Literacy is a complex, multifaceted skill. 

Learners must be able to decode, contextualize, and make meaning from information and communicate that knowledge effectively to others.

Literacy exists in a symbiotic relationship with lived experience, interest, background knowledge, and cultural relevance. It is the key to a happy and successful life!

“...literacy education not only unlocks opportunity for learning across disciplines but it is enhanced when well-integrated within disciplines. Inter-disciplinary literacy instruction enables the application of literate abilities for purposeful and richer learning, often motivating learners through engagement in disciplines and topics of interest.”
