On the Same Page

Literacy in ALL Classrooms:
Teaching Everyone About “Making Meaning”!

A comprehensive literacy professional development experience and planning process designed by NELMS for middle level students and teachers to ensure increased Literacy Learning.

We Believe:

  • All teachers should have the same understanding about literacy instruction!
  • All students should learn reading and writing in every classroom!
  • All educators in a school should be “On the Same Page!” in order to more effectively help students read and write in the content classrooms.

What is it?

“On the Same Page!” is a four day cost effective professional development experience designed for the entire faculty and school leadership. NELMS uses research based strategies and our wealth of experience to provide teachers with a common knowledge and an intentional plan to implement consistent and effective literacy instruction – reading, writing, and speaking – in each and every classroom in your middle level school. Learning common strategies and information together will increase knowledge of effective practices, relevant professional conversations, and better results for students.

  • Practical engaging session of the best “tried and true” strategies in literacy instruction!
  • The collaborative development of action plans to effectively implement strategies and assure sustainability.
  • Materials that utilize research-based practices for reading and writing instruction in content classrooms.
