I'm so excited to share this special issue of the Journal of Adolescent and Adult Literacy. A great set of articles (all free!) on helping adolescents develop the foundational literacy skills they need to pursue their goals in and out of school. ila.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/toc/19362706...

Literacy friends! If you’re going to #LRA2024, come to the Word Study study group each day (12:00 - 1:00) for outstanding talks and great discussion on word consciousness, morphology, vocabulary (with a critical lens), foundational skills, & professional learning.
