TRU+Lesson Study: Professional learning series for high school mathematics departments

By Karen Tran, SERP Institute • 03 May, 2021

Schools and districts are being tasked to provide professional development opportunities for teachers to support changes in instructional practice.

Accelerate Progress in Reading with STARI

By Website Editor • 07 Apr, 2021
The evidence is clear. The Strategic Adolescent Reading Intervention (STARI) accelerates the development of reading skills among adolescents who struggle with reading in Grades 6-9. Educators know that many students continue to need help with foundational reading skills beyond elementary school, and for the last decade STARI has been proven effective in providing that support. But now, with the unprecedented situation of students experiencing an extended period of remote instruction, there will be a massive need for the accelerated reading development STARI provides. STARI is uniquely designed to thoroughly engage students in building their reading and comprehension skills. The themes are complex and age-appropriate for older students, even though STARI builds foundational literacy skills together with grade-level reading skills.
