Abstract
Supporting foundational skills in adolescents such as word-level knowledge, syntactic knowledge, and morphemic knowledge are indeed vital. However, these skills alone and in isolation are not enough and do not develop without supporting students' sense of agency during literacy instruction. In this commentary, the authors explore student agency and the teaching of foundational skills to create engaged and skilled adolescent readers and writers.
