Thanks Matt for reposting.
Some of the principles- all of which include specific actions-are holding high expectations, providing scaffolds, facilitating meaningful conversations, building a culture of trust, valuing and seeking stories.

For those still waging a baseless battle against balanced literacy, I urge you to read this 5th Ed research informed book. The greatest gift we can give children is to build a foundation of knowledge that is grounded in research.
Anything less is mere opinion and hearsay!
