2 INTRODUCTION This document demonstrates how, Tennessee Edition, 2008 meets the objectives of the Tennessee English Language Arts Standards Implementation. Correlation page references are to the Teacher s Edition. Lessons in the Teacher s Edition contain facsimile Student Edition pages. is a comprehensive reading program for Kindergarten through Grade Six that is built on solid research and prioritizes the five core areas of reading instruction for every grade: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Fluency, Vocabulary and Text Comprehension. Literature Reading Street provides a rich variety of genres that include a balance of fiction and nonfiction. Content area connections support science and social studies instruction every week. With a greater emphasis on informational text, Reading Street prepares students for the kinds of selections they will encounter on state assessments. Assessment Reading Street begins the year with the Baseline Group Test to make initial grouping decision. Progress is monitored during instruction and identifies students needs along the way. The Unit Benchmark Test measures student performance and can be used to regroup. The End-of-Year Benchmark Test gives a summative assessment and shows how far students have come. Differentiated Instruction Reading Street instruction is systematic, explicit, and highly focused for all ability levels. Each unit gives a clear road map to differentiate instruction for On-Level, Strategic Intervention, and Advanced readers. Group Time throughout each lesson provides scaffolded instruction for all readers. Built-in lessons for Strategic Intervention and Advanced learners supplement core instruction every day. Weekly Leveled Readers and Leveled Practice help every student practice and apply comprehension skills and vocabulary in appropriate texts. ELL Instruction Reading Street paves the way with highly focused ELL instruction, practice, and resources to meet all proficiency levels and provides an ELL Reader every week to build vocabulary, provide text support, and enrich language skills.
