Personal Literacy Plans (PLPs) 
 
Introduction

A Personal Literacy Plan (PLP) is a plan of action used to accelerate a student’s learning in order to move toward grade level reading proficiency.  A problem-solving approach is used to develop this plan in order to determine specific needs, establish short-term student goals, and set the course of action.  The cycle of student support follows:

  • Diagnose, Analyze, and Validate Need (s)
  • Design Intervention Plan
  • Implement Intervention
  • Review Progress Monitoring Data
  • Revise/Modify Support
  • Implement Revised/Modified Intervention
  • Use Assessments to Determine Discontinuation or Need for New Intervention

This process is inclusive because it involves teachers, parents, administrators, and other staff members. 
Parents may choose not to participate with home support; however, they may not decline a PLP for their child.

 

PLP Update Fall 2011

We are continuing to include Personal Literacy Plan (PLP) data within the eRIDE enrollment census program core upload.  It provides an opportunity to establish a more reliable and useful data set to assist with an LEA’s literacy planning and programming.

Items to note:

  • The PLP data submission protocol has been updated.  The Personal Literacy Plan Data Collection 2011-2012 document listed below describes the process in detail.
  • The regional collaboratives: East Bay, Northern, and West Bay, will need to provide sending districts their students’ PLP data prior to the February 1, 2012 deadline.  It is recommended that the collaboratives and LEAs establish due dates to ensure that the PLP data submission is completed by the deadline.
