Bridging Preparation and Practice to Improve Literacy

From Preparation to Practice

Preparing Ohio’s teachers with the knowledge and skills to deliver high-quality language and literacy instruction is essential to ensuring that every child learns to read well. Equally important is strengthening the capacity of Ohio’s colleges and universities to fully align their teacher preparation programs with reading science.
