CCLD provides advisory services to districts and schools for the improvement of adolescent reading, as well as high-quality teacher professional development through our Adolescent Literacy Project model. CCLD does not train teachers in specific commercial reading programs, but we do provide trainings in evidence-based teaching practices that have been shown to facilitate reluctant students in reading, writing, and language use.
Below is a collection of recent materials from the International Reading Association’s journals and publications which we recommend. CCLD is also producing a 30-minute video on Adolescent Reading Difficulties for ILA, and we hope to have it available to our teachers in early 2022.
