STANDARDS CLOSE-UP

Standards Close-Up
Leveled topic sets help students meet new standards while building science and social studies knowledge. Each two-book topic set breaks down one standard into manageable skills and strategies.
  • A mini-lesson and multiple reading passages provide opportunities to model skills and strategies for scaffolded learning.
  • Standard-based text evidence questions and writing assignments facilitate comprehension.

​Focus on the power standards in a magazine-like format. Use targeted standard-specific texts to instruct students with grade level text. Tailor to the time you have to focus on Power Standards 1, 2 , 4 and/or 9.
