TALA Content Area 6th-8th Grade Academy
The Texas Adolescent Literacy Academy (TALA) prepares middle
school teachers (grades 6, 7, and 8) to design appropriate instruction for all
students, including those who struggle with reading due to limited English
proficiency, learning disabilities, dyslexia, or other risk factors. Included
are a set of training modules on cross-curricular vocabulary and comprehension
strategies, a diagnostic and progress-monitoring instrument, and guidance for
intensive interventions that target the needs of struggling adolescent readers.
The Content Area TALA session is for all content area teachers in grades 6 - 8 except ELA. ELA teachers register for the ELA TALA session.
