The aim of the Adolescent Literacy Support Project (ALSP) is to create classroom learning
environments that support increased science achievement through better and more purposeful
reading. We are building and employing three literacy support tools for students’ and teachers’
use in the classroom. The use of these tools is coupled to disciplinary text and science
assessment. Teachers couple their use of the tools with disciplinary text and science assessment
as they implement the curriculum “Investigations in Environment Science.” We want to
examine if increased opportunities in reading allows high school learners to better engage in
science inquiry and increase their reading achievement and if these more structured reading
opportunities in science influence learners’ science achievement.
