Science of Reading
Professional Learning Course

Empowering Michigan educators to improve student literacy through evidence-based professional learning

The Michigan LETRS Science of Reading Professional Learning Course will provide sustained and job-embedded professional learning about the science of reading, at no cost to educators. These impactful courses are based on Lexia's LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) for elementary educators, LETRS for Administrators, and LETRS for Early Childhood Educators

One Michigan District's LETRS Journey

The Michigan LETRS Science of Reading Professional Learning Course is part of the state's comprehensive plan to apply millions of dollars in federal relief to improve student literacy. The LETRS course of study gives teachers the skills they need to teach language and literacy to every student, even those with reading challenges like dyslexia.

Participation is on a first-come, first-served basis so reserve your seat now. Participants will earn valuable CEUs or PLUs!

What is LETRS?

Developed by Dr. Louisa Moats and leaders in the field of literacy, LETRS teaches the skills needed to master the foundation and fundamentals of reading and writing instruction-phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, comprehension, and written language.

LETRS professional learning for elementary educators is an investment in teachers' literacy knowledge and professional practice. Teachers gain essential knowledge to master the fundamentals of literacy instruction required to transform student learning.

LETRS for Early Childhood Educators professional learning provides deep knowledge of literacy instruction for the youngest learners. The more children know about language and literacy before they begin kindergarten and first grade, the better equipped they are to succeed in literacy learning and beyond.

LETRS for Administrators equips instructional leaders to create systems and structures in their schools and districts to achieve high levels of academic performance and growth in literacy.

"Teachers are the most important factor in student success. Informed teachers can explain language to students, including sounds, spellings, and word meanings that might be confusing. They use lessons based on reading science and understand the process of learning to read and write. Research proves it. Science matters."

Louisa Moats, Ed.D., Author of LETRS

Resources

A host of resources related to LETRS, the science of reading, and Structured Literacy is available to give you additional insight.
