The New Balanced Literacy School You've Been Waiting For!

Are you tired of traditional teaching methods that leave some students struggling to keep up while others get bored? Look no further! The new Balanced Literacy School at Maupin House is here to revolutionize education and ensure every child receives the best possible learning experience.

What is Balanced Literacy?

Balanced Literacy is an approach that combines direct instruction, independent reading, collaborative learning, and targeted skill practice to develop students' reading and writing abilities. It aims to create a balance between whole-group instruction and individualized support, fostering independent thinkers and confident readers.

In the past, we have seen schools that focus solely on direct instruction, where teachers do most of the talking and students passively listen. On the other hand, some schools promote independent reading without providing adequate guidance and support. The Balanced Literacy model addresses these shortcomings by integrating various teaching strategies to meet the needs of all learners.
