Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling, or LETRS, is a professional development course for educators. LETRS is not a literacy curriculum. Rather, it provides knowledge and tools surrounding the science of reading that teachers can use to bolster their reading instruction.
LETRS provides knowledge of the Science of Reading and the evidence-based teaching practices based on the Science of Reading. Both 95% Core and Wonders are also based on the Science of Reading and follow the best practices outlined in the research. LETRS gives teachers the knowledge to recognize what their students need to improve their reading skills by meeting their specific needs while explicitly teaching reading.
All the documents and written samples can be accessed in the Resources tab. Unfortunately, the videos in the LETRS platform cannot be downloaded due to copyright law, but teachers can view other CSD teachers teaching LETRS routines and strategies.
If you have questions about LETRS, including credit, payment or enrollment, please contact Leslie Robinett in the Instructional Supports Department.
