Whole-School Solutions to Literacy Standards

When it comes to literacy, standards-aligned is achievement-aligned

The global pandemic challenged our education system in many ways, but one constant remains – the standards. For years, these tried-and-true companions have helped tens of thousands of new and veteran teachers accelerate student learning by focusing on the most critical literacy and mathematics standards.

Whether you are in a Common Core state or a state that has state-specific standards, Corwin Literacy has a series that can help you transform the standards into learning outcomes. What’s different between the series? Not much. Page by page in each series, the authors clearly lay out the literacy principles in each standard, the connected standards within each domain, priorities within clusters, and the three components of rigor.

The main difference? It’s simple. Your Literacy Standards Companions provide a cross-referenced index by state—for states implementing their own specific literacy standards (those in orange on the map)—which shows which of your standards are the same as the CCSS-ELA and which differ and how. The index then guides you to the pages that provide standard-based teaching ideas for each and every standard

The result—that version of the standards you need in your state.
