This tool is designed to assist college instructors in building pre-service teachers' knowledge of evidence-based strategies for helping students in kindergarten through grade 3 acquire the language and literacy skills to succeed academically. This tool is intended for use in conjunction with the "Foundational Skills to Support Reading for Understanding in Kindergarten through 3rd Grade" practice guide produced by the What Works Clearinghouse™ (WWC), an investment of the Institute of Education Sciences at the U.S. Department of Education. College instructors can use the lessons in this tool to provide collaborative learning experiences that engage pre-service teachers in activities that expand their knowledge base as they read, discuss, share, and apply the key ideas and strategies presented in the WWC practice guide.
