Evidence-based biliteracy instruction
in all four language domainsScience of Reading research shows that students need to build strong language-comprehension skills in
tandem with word-recognition to become skillful readers. Our solution gives students direct, explicit, and
systematic instruction and practice in all areas of language and literacy to improve academic outcomes.
Listening & Speaking —
Escucha y responde
Students practice authentic speech in
a variety of contexts by responding to
visuals or text, telling a story, or recounting
an experience.
Reading & Writing —
Respondiendo a la lectura
Students write a response to a comprehension
question relating to a literary or informational
text they have just read and evaluate their
response with a writing checklist.

“It gauges each individual child’s path of
learning. So, if a student is lacking in one
area, it’s going to focus on that student’s
need. It really does help that teacher
support the instruction that she’s doing,
but in a differentiated manner.”
