Rather, literacy is the ability to read, speak, listen, and think in order to learn, communicate, and making meaning of increasingly complex print and online texts. Literacy and content learning are deeply intertwined" (Taking the Lead on Adolescent Literacy Action Steps for Schoolwide Success by Judith Irvin, Julie Meltzer, Nancy Dean, Martha Jan Mickler, page 2
