APPA is currently developing a literacy proposal with 3 universities and systems around the theme "Principals as Literacy Leaders".  I thought you might be interested in some articles we are reading to support our work.

Three articles that you can download freely from the internet are:

1. Anne Alkema & Pam O'Connell - Looking for Leadership in Literacy Learning.

2. Douglas B. Reeves - The Leadership Challenge in Literacy.

3. Marie Carbo - What Principals Need To Know About Reading Instruction.

4. Louise Stoll - Paper No. 135 - Leadership Learning: Designing a connected strategy
