Description
The LETRS® (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) Suite offers a comprehensive learning experience designed to equip educators and administrators with an in-depth understanding of literacy and language, making them proficient in the science of reading. Created by esteemed literacy authorities Dr. Louisa Moats, Dr. Carol Tolman, and Dr. Lucy Hart Paulson, this program serves as a versatile professional development resource tailored for educators and leaders alike. LETRS focuses on imparting essential skills necessary for mastering key aspects of reading instruction, which include phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, writing, and language proficiency. Studies indicate that while only 35% of students currently demonstrate reading proficiency, an impressive 95% have the potential to learn to read successfully. Furthermore, it is crucial to recognize that teachers play a pivotal role in student achievement; however, approximately half of the institutions responsible for teacher training do not adequately prepare them for effective literacy instruction. A profound comprehension of the underlying processes and scientific principles associated with teaching reading is essential for educators to foster literacy effectively. Therefore, enhancing teacher training in these areas is vital for improving overall student literacy outcomes.

Lexia® PowerUp Literacy® is designed to enhance literacy development for students in grades 6–12 who are at a heightened risk of falling short of College- and Career-Ready Standards. It has been demonstrated to be as much as five times more effective than typical middle school reading interventions, allowing students to achieve several years' worth of progress within just one academic year. By the time students reach grades 6–12, they are expected to transition from the process of learning how to read to engaging in reading for learning. Despite this expectation, assessments such as the National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) have consistently indicated a significant opportunity gap, revealing that only approximately one-third of eighth-grade students are reading at or above proficient levels. With reading being the primary medium of most secondary education curricula, many students face the risk of not realizing their full academic capabilities. Fortunately, PowerUp addresses this issue, drawing on over three decades of experience in delivering effective Structured Literacy programs; therefore, Lexia's literacy specialists tailored PowerUp specifically to enhance student learning outcomes in a meaningful way. By focusing on personalized learning paths, PowerUp ensures that every student has the chance to overcome literacy challenges and thrive in their educational journey.
