Abstract
House Bill 3 requires individuals seeking certification to teach grades kindergarten through six to pass a Science of Teaching Reading (STR) exam. Texas educator preparation programs are revamping coursework to prepare candidates to pass this exam, and, more importantly, help them to provide the #heartwork needed to support young readers. Resulting from that work, two university faculty members initiated the Texas Literacy Collaborative for Educator Preparation (TXLCEP)—a state-wide faculty-led initiative for preparing teachers of reading. This article discusses how TXLCEP was created, illustrates what to expect at a TXLCEP session, and explains how to become a member of TXLCEP.
