Literacy Coach

The Literacy Team at Navy Elementary is made up of Becky Schnabel (Literacy Lead). Navy Elementary is committed to providing evidence-based literacy instruction that is grounded in science of reading research. Literacy instruction at Navy ES is engaging, multi-sensory and structured to instruct students in all the strands of Scarborough’s Reading rope (2001):  building background knowledge, vocabulary, language structures, verbal reasoning, literacy knowledge, phonological awareness, decoding, and sight recognition. 

Teachers at Navy receive ongoing training in effective literacy instruction and provide their instruction based on data to ensure they are targeting the needs of students. At Navy ES, we have high expectations for ALL students to realize their greatest potential in literacy skills, placing equity at the center of our work.  Our school is committed to 

creating a culture of readers and writers that value literacy and use reading, writing, listening and speaking to become more effective communicators who leverage our strong literacy skills to empower each other and our school community.
