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.
