This module provides K-12 teachers with examples of structured literacy instruction in general education classrooms as well as in Tier 2 small groups and Tier 3 intensive interventions. The module encourages consistent, cumulative literacy instruction by providing information in two areas. First, educators receive an overview of the essential elements of structured literacy instruction, including synthetic and analytic thinking skills, scope and sequence, and teaching vocabulary through the elements of the POSSUM acronym. Second, the module provides video examples of Spencer Community School District teachers implementing structured literacy routines in active classrooms.
