    • School & District Literacy Plans

    Wilson’s Implementation Teams are prepared to collaborate with your school or district to develop custom plans that capture your school or district’s strategy for achieving its literacy goals. These strategies are formulated as part of COMPASS Plans (COMprehensive Plans for Achieving Success and Sustainability) and are customized to suit your school or district’s specific needs. Plans may involve only one tier or incorporate several tiers of instruction at once. 

    Tiers 1 & 2 for Grades K-3

    Fundations® is the program appropriate for Tier 1 & 2 instruction in grades K-3. Each COMPASS Plan for Fundations implementation includes the Level-specific workshops to be delivered; staff members to be selected for Facilitator Certification and teacher-leader roles; the coaching that would be provided and the schools in which the coaching would take place; all materials required for training purposes, and for teachers and students to use in class; the schedule of events and activities; and an orientation workshop for administrators.

    Tier 2 for Grades 4-12

    Just Words® is the program appropriate for Tier 2 instruction in grades 4-12. Each COMPASS Plan for Just Words implementation includes the workshops to be delivered; staff members to be selected for Facilitator Certification and teacher-leader roles; the coaching that would be provided and the schools in which the coaching would take place; all materials required for training purposes, and for teachers and students to use in class; the schedule of events and activities; and an orientation workshop for administrators.

    Tier 3 for Grades 2-12

    The Wilson Reading System® (WRS) provides intensive Tier 3 instruction in grades 2-12. Each COMPASS Plan for WRS implementation includes a WRS Introductory Course as well as the WRS Level I Certification Program. The WRS plan requires the selection of a cohort of teachers to enroll in the WRS Intensive Instruction: Online Course (Steps 1-6) and the WRS Level I Steps 1-6 Practicum.  This plan could also include the WRS Advanced Strategies for Multisensory Structured Language (MSL) Group Instruction Workshop, which prepares teachers for group instruction,  WRS Level II Certification, or the development of a WRS Trainer .
