Science of Reading for emergent bilinguals
Grounded in Science of Reading methodology, Boost Lectura acknowledges the nuances of biliteracy and the Spanish language. The instruction design is based on how Spanish literacy develops, staying true to our core Science of Reading principle: Literacy instruction in each language must reflect its unique linguistic elements.
Developed with experts
Boost Lectura’s Spanish literacy curriculum was developed in partnership with Spanish literacy experts and educators from several Spanish-speaking regions who contributed valuable perspectives for the creation of authentic and relevant content.
