English Language Arts <show description>

Research has shown Teaching to Standards: English Language Arts to be highly effective in teaching skills that align to grade-level standards. The curriculum provides materials at three literacy levels: object/photo, concrete symbols, and text. Skill areas include persuasive writing, elements of story grammar, and research endeavors. The authors adapted 16 popular works (like Holes, Number the Stars, and Dragonwings) into simplified text with repeated story lines and symbol supports. Genres include fiction, nonfiction, plays, and poetry.

The 32 progressive lessons are scripted and incorporate evidence-based teaching procedures. They are organized into four theme-based units: Change, Values and Decision Making, Social Justice, and Global Awareness. These far-reaching themes help students grasp the big ideas as well as specific ELA skills.

This blended curriculum seamlessly integrates traditional formats, like books and manipulatives, with software and an iPad app. The blended approach helps you teach all your students effectively and creates an engaging learning process. In the software and app, students explore four works of nonfiction through a five-step instructional sequence: preview, vocabulary, read the book, comprehension questions, and story sequence.
