2010-2011 is the inaugural year for Literacy Collaborative at Niagara Wheatfield
Literacy Collaborative is a comprehensive school reform project designed to improve the reading, writing and language skills of elementary children. The Literacy Collaborative incorporates
all of the elements of effective schools to support
improved literacy instruction and student
achievement through:
-
Providing a research-based instructional
model that is language-based, student-centered,
process-oriented, and outcome-based;
-
Creating in-school and in-district
leadership through the training and support of
school-based literacy leadership teams,
administrators, and literacy coordinators;
-
Establishing long-term site-based
development for every member of the school’s
literacy faculty; and
-
Helping schools monitor the progress of
every student through systematized assessment,
data collection, and analysis.
The goal of this comprehensive effort is to significantly raise the level of literacy achievement for all students.
