Teacher Professional Development - LETRS 3rd Edition

The K-5 Structured Literacy Professional Development used in the Albuquerque Public Schools is:

LETRS 3rd Edition (published by Lexia) by Dr. Louisa C. Moats & Dr. Carol A. Tolman (2019)

This training is for K-5 general education teachers, K-5 special education teachers, K-5 bilingual education teachers, K-5 gifted teachers, reading & math interventionists, resource teachers, transformational/instructional coaches, and any teacher who utilizes literacy and language skills in K-5 or K-8 schools.

• • Currently, the only roles exempt from LETRS training are P.E. coaches, music/art teachers, counselors, computer/technology teachers, and librarians. Because Common Core ELA standards are aligned to the performance expectations in the NextGen Science Standards, STEM/STEAM resource teachers should also take LETRS training.

The resources from this professional learning can only be used by current and former LETRS participants. Resources and materials may not be shared or provided to teachers who have not yet started LETRS training.

This professional learning includes two sprial-bound, purple manuals (Volume 1 & Volume 2) and an online license with letrs.com. These materials are only provided upon registration into the professional learning.
