16. The Content Literacy Continuum During School: Level 1: Enhanced content instruction (Mastery of critical content for all regardless of literacy levels) Level 2: Embedded strategy instruction (Routinely weave strategies instruction within and across classes using large-group methods) Level 3: Intensive strategy instruction (Mastery of specific strategies using 8- stage instructional sequence; individual Strategic Tutoring) Level 4: Intensive basic skill instruction (Mastery of entry level literacy skills at the 4th-grade level) Level 5: Therapeutic intervention (Mastery of language underpinnings of curriculum content and learning strategies) After School: Strategic Tutoring (Extending the instructional time “box” through before- and after-school tutoring)
