The TLI Action Steps
What plan of action does the grant follow?
The Texas State Literacy Plan is composed of a set of key action steps for each component of the framework at each age/grade level grouping (Age 0 to School Entry, Kindergarten-Grade 5, and Grades 6-12). While actions at the district, regional, and state levels are necessary for the Texas State Literacy Plan to be a cohesive whole, the actions in this phase are designed to support implementation in classrooms at the site and by Campus- or Site-based Leadership Teams and lead to the development of a Comprehensive Literacy Program for the campus or site. Tools to support the implementation of the Texas State Literacy Plan include online Implementation Guides and the online Course.
Online Texas State Literacy Plan Implementation Guides
Online Implementation Guides for use by Campus-or Site-based Leadership Teams include each age/grade level grouping:
An Inventory of implementation status for each action step Indicators (descriptions and evidence) for each level of implementation An individualized Implementation Map that summarizes the results of the inventory for each campus Resources available to assist the campus or site in implementing the action step.
What is a Literacy Line?
"A Literacy Line is a vertical collaborative among feeder-pattern campuses within a Local Education Agency (LEA) or among partnering eligible LEAs (including prekindergarten, elementary, middle, and high schools) and their associated Early Childhood Education providers, which may include, among others, Early Head Start, Head Start, public or private or nonprofit licensed child care providers, and public prekindergarten programs."
