This model is aspirational, open to continual improvement and interpretation, and, as such, we are reaching out to request your feedback on our work thus far. Our goal is to hand new and struggling teachers a simple, unified approach to literacy development so that they and their students will experience much-needed success during their first year together. With a firm foundation in place, educators will have time for deeper language-literacy activities, including knowledge-building, comprehension and enjoyment. Below, we have listed in draft form ten principles that form the foundation of a language-literacy network development and welcome your divergent opinions, criticism, and, if warranted, your endorsement. We hope to unite proponents of Balanced Literacy, Science of Reading, and those who hold overarching perspectives so to raise the level of discourse and redirect time and energy towards more productive goals.

If you are interested in supporting, criticizing, or influencing this project please contact Bruce Howlett at b7howlett.com as well as the influential educator who sent you this email.

Thank you – sincerely!
