The Keys to Literacy Capacities: Three Support Courses
Direct instruction in the following three literacy capacities is key to getting all students reading and spelling at grade level by the end of third grade: 1) phonemic awareness, 2) symbol imagery, and 3) concept imagery. (Providing direct instruction in these three literacy capacities is also helpful for older students who struggle with reading and spelling.)
These three courses complement "Unlocking The Roadmap to Literacy," and they can stand alone as individual courses. They are available as individual courses for $99 each for six months of access or as a bundle for one year of access.
Featured Bundles
These three courses are bundled together in the following two bundles: The Roadmap to Literacy (Bronze Level) and The Roadmap to Literacy (Silver Level).
The Bronze Level contains the Keys to Literacy Capacities (3 courses); the Silver Level contains the Keys to Literacy Capacities (3 courses) plus Unlocking The Roadmap to Literacy. These bundles are best value--they give you the courses for one year of access.

About Your Instructor
Hi, I am Jennifer Militzer-Kopperl. I am a private remedial specialist, trained Waldorf teacher, author of The Roadmap to Literacy Books, and the creator of Renewal of Literacy®.
In the last 24 years, I have taught hundreds of students to read, write, and spell (Waldorf, charter, homeschool, public school, and nonpublic school), and I have trained scores of teachers, including clinicians at Lindamood-Bell Learning Processes and Waldorf faculties both private and public.
I am offering Renewal of Literacy® courses to teach you how to create, deliver, and assess an academically robust and effective language arts curriculum, one that aligns with the indications of the founder of Waldorf education, Rudolf Steiner, and enables schools to get up to 95% of students reading and spelling at grade level--and pass inspections and credentialing with flying colors.
The goal is a renewal of education through a renewal of literacy.
I hope you will join me in renewing literacy--for the 21st century and beyond.
