Advanced Search Association Home Focus Home Adolescent Literacy ... Urban Education Initiatives FOCUS on Adolescent Literacy In Adolescent Literacy: A Position Statement , the International Reading Association asserts that the ongoing literacy development of adolescents is just as important, and requires just as much attention, as that of beginning readers. The expanding literacy demands placed upon young people at the beginning of the 21st century include more reading and writing tasks than at any other time in human history. Adolescent learners deserve the kinds of support and learning opportunities that will enable them to grow into confident, independent readers and writers. The Association believes that adolescent readers have a right to Access to a wide variety of reading material that appeals to their interests Instruction that builds the skill and desire to read increasingly complex materials Assessment that shows their strengths as well as their needs Expert teachers who model and provide explicit instruction across the curriculum Reading specialists who assist students having difficulty learning how to read Teachers who understand the complexities of individual adolescent readers Homes and communities that support the needs of adolescent learners Publications Books: Recommended titles and sample chapters Articles Lesson plans from the ReadWriteThink website, for

Goals and outcomes are focused. A Rhyme a Week: Nursery Rhymes for Early Literacy If "an apple a day will keep the doctor away", then perhaps a-rhyme-a-week will keep school failure at bay. WIL's A-Rhyme-a-Week phonological awareness program features 28 different nursery rhymes. The phonograms or "rimes" emphasized in our program were first identified by Richard Wylie and Donald Durrell in 1970. Examining a list of 1, 437 words commonly spoken by children in primary grades (Murphy, 1957), Wylie and Durrell identified 37 rimes that accounted for almost 500 words of Murphy's list. In determining the order of rhymes and rimes to present each week, we are following Fry's (1998) suggested consideration of frequency. Downloadables include rhyme cards, picture card sets, riddle rhymes, and lesson plans. Areas of Study with Writing Project For this final class project, a student in the Nevada Reading Excellence Act Master’s Cohort developed a lesson plan to assist students in writing a “well-developed, short essay on a content area.” The teacher has included a series of photographs including reading materials and motivators, vocabulary chart, fact chart, and a final draft.

The course focuses on how to structure English literacy instruction with a coherent sequence and progression that addresses the four skills of the language arts: listening, speaking, reading and writing. The strategies presented are based on research that defines the specific challenges faced by students who are developing literacy in English as a second language (ESL). These points of interaction between language and literacy are the foundation of sound curriculum design and selection of methods and approaches appropriate for learners at various levels of English proficiency and school grades.
