Core5 and LETRS: Working Together for Literacy Success in Florida

Florida school leaders who rely on Lexia® Core5® Reading and its science of reading-based instruction realize the program's value for student literacy development. By adding Lexia® LETRS® Professional Learning to teach science of reading concepts, leaders can support educator empowerment while enhancing student engagement.

This solution guide illustrates how Core5 and LETRS work together to offer blended learning that keeps teachers at the center of literacy instruction while providing them with the knowledge and skills to maximize learning gains. LETRS enhances student outcomes by:

• Strengthening literacy instruction in the classroom, providing teachers with a detailed understanding of the principles of the science of reading. Throughout the day, educators can efficiently and effectively integrate these concepts into the delivery of all available classroom resources in their instruction.

• Improving teachers’ knowledge of assessments and their interpretation of data to effectively inform all aspects of instruction. Teachers learn how to interpret results from all types of assessments, including data from Core5 reports, progress monitoring, and end-of-year measures.

• Increasing teachers’ confidence not only in the instruction of science of reading-based lessons but also in applying this knowledge for individual, small-group, or whole-class instruction.
