What if targeting and differentiating your literacy instruction felt easy?
That’s what the 5CCL Learning Lab is here for. Use the data, curriculum, and resources you already have to identify what matters most, focus instruction where it’s needed, and monitor progress.
You know you need to target student needs and differentiate instruction,
but what does that actually mean?
Especially when you have a full caseload, a pile of data, an existing curriculum, a bookshelf full of resources, and students who all need different things?
That’s where the 5CCL Learning Lab comes in.
The 5CCL Learning Lab
gives you a simple, repeatable process for figuring out what to target, how to differentiate (without creating a completely different lesson for every student), how to know whether it’s working, and what to do if it’s not.
Finally, feel on top of your literacy caseload.
Instead of trying to keep track of scattered scores, notes, spreadsheets, and resources, your 5CCL Caseload Dashboard brings the information that matters most into one clear view.
See your students at a glance, identify their primary literacy needs, keep track of what you’re targeting, and monitor the one data point that will help you know whether your instruction is meeting the diverse needs of your students.
Start by getting clear on what really matters.
You don’t need to track every possible data point. You need a practical way to see your students, identify the most important need, and know what you’re looking for to ensure student growth.
See How the Caseload Dashboard Works
Getting your data organized is only the beginning.
Once you can clearly see what your students need, the 5CCL Learning Lab helps you use that information to actually target and differentiate your instruction.
Here’s How it Works:
1
Map the data.
We’ll help you cut through all the available data and identify the few things that actually matter so you can see each student’s primary literacy needs and know where to focus with the 5CCL Caseload Dashboard.
2
Decide how to differentiate.
Once you know what needs your attention, we’ll help you determine how to differentiate within the curriculum, routines, and resources you already have, including what to emphasize, supplement, or adjust, with the 5CCL Activity Library + Ongoing Support & Case Reviews.
3
Monitor whether it’s working.
We’ll help you track the right progress data with the Progress Monitoring Toolkit so you can see whether your targeted instruction is working and know when to stay the course or make a change.
So, what does this actually look like inside 5CCL?
→ Start with your caseload
Add your current students to the 5CCL Caseload Dashboard, bring together the data that matters most, and identify their primary literacy needs (using a simple grouping system).
→ Choose your instructional focus
Use the 5CCL framework to decide what to target and use the 5CCL Activity Library to help differentiate the instruction you’re already using.
→ Track one meaningful measure of progress
Choose the data point that will tell you whether your targeted instruction is working and keep an eye on growth over time.
→ Bring the tricky cases to us
When a student isn’t making the progress you expected, or you’re just not sure about your plan, submit a Case Review and get another set of eyes on what you’re seeing.
Then use the same process again whenever you get a new student, start a new group, or need to adjust your plan.
And when you’re not sure what to do next, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
Submit a Next Step Case Review and get individualized feedback on the student, data, or instructional plan you’re working through.
Sometimes you just need another set of eyes to help you decide whether to stay the course, adjust your focus, or try something different.
Built by interventionists who do this work every day.
We built 5CCL because we knew our students well and had plenty of data, but still found ourselves walking into meetings trying to pull together a simple explanation of what we were targeting, why, and whether it was working.
We realized we didn’t need more data or another shelf full of random resources. We needed a simpler way to identify what mattered, choose the right support, and make progress easier to see.
That’s the thinking behind 5CCL:
You don’t need to focus on everything. You need to focus on the right things.
The tools and processes inside the Learning Lab are grounded in more than 20 years of classroom and clinical experience and the real work of supporting students, families, and educators.
Make targeting and differentiating your literacy instruction easier all year long.
Your students will change. Their needs will change. And sometimes the instructional focus that made sense in September won’t be the same one you need in January.
Use the 5CCL framework, Caseload Dashboard, Activity Library, Progress Monitoring Toolkit, and Case Reviews whenever you need to organize a new caseload, adjust instruction, or think through a student who isn’t making the progress you expected.

What people are saying…
Still have questions? We’ve got answers.
-
5CCL is best for interventionists, literacy specialists, special educators, tutors, etc., supporting multiple students and trying to easily target/differentiate literacy instruction for students K-8
-
No. 5CCL is designed to help you target and differentiate the instruction you’re already providing. You can use it alongside your existing curriculum, intervention program, or resources to identify what matters most, determine where you may need to adjust or supplement, and monitor whether your plan is working.
-
You probably don’t need more! 5CCL is all about simplifying and the goal is not about giving you another giant pile of activities. It helps you determine which resources actually make sense for the students in front of you.
The Activity Library is there when you need additional options, not because you need to change or replace everything you already use.
-
5CCL helps you identify the types of information that matter most, but you can use the assessment data, observations, and progress-monitoring information you already have. You don’t need to adopt an entirely new assessment system. If you don’t have data or assessments, we’ve got you covered inside the Learning Lab.
-
The goal is to make your existing work simpler, not add another thing to complete. You can start with your current caseload, organize the most important information, and use the process as needed. Getting started usually only takes a few minutes!

Take a look around, check out the framework and tools, and see how it fits your caseload. If it isn’t what you expected, reach out within seven days for a refund.

Yes! You can cancel your monthly plan anytime, no questions asked. You’ll keep access through the end of your billing period.
