Transforming Education Through Better Teaching
Introducing the R.E.A.C.H.™ Curriculum
The National Literacy Institute is a leading provider of literacy teacher training, curriculum, ongoing coaching, and materials to educators across the country. NLI-trained teachers learn the research-based skills necessary to effectively teach reading and writing in all subjects across all grades. Our professional learning approach is highly participatory and engaging!
NLI R.E.A.C.H.™ Framework:
R — Recognize Student Needs
Start with assessment data; group students based on instructional needs.
E — Engage Academic Language
Build Tier 2 and Tier 3 academic vocabulary across content areas.
A — Apply Comprehension Strategies
Teach students to analyze complex texts across every subject.
C — Coach Through Small Groups
Targeted, small-group instruction based on need.
H — Highlight Growth
Track and celebrate progress to build student ownership and confidence.
It's built for grades 6-12, with the idea that literacy becomes every teacher's responsibility, not just the ELA teacher's — since secondary students are "reading to learn" across every subject.
