5 Actionable Steps To Support Teachers

Teacher burnout is at an all-time high, and school leaders feel the pressure. Academic challenges, staffing shortages, and limited resources are growing problems that leave teachers overwhelmed.

That’s why it’s never too early to take action toward making teaching more sustainable in your school. This checklist offers some practical, research-backed strategies to build a well-supported teaching environment where educators feel valued.

This checklist covers how to:

• Deliver professional learning that provides the essential knowledge teachers need to become experts in literacy

• Reduce cognitive overload by providing instructional tools that make more efficient use of class time

• Build a collaborative environment for teaching and learning

• Make assessments automatic, freeing up time that was once spent on testing

• Offer equitable access to education by meeting diverse student needs with adaptive technology

The checklist also illustrates how the Lexia® portfolio provides evidence-based curricular and professional development solutions that give administrators the tools to take each of these essential steps toward creating a more sustainable and rewarding environment for their teachers.

Teachers depend on their administrators to establish a culture of collaboration and provide the tools and resources they need to drive positive student outcomes. When teachers feel more confident and capable—and see the rewards of their efforts—they’re more likely to stay and continue making a difference.
