Peer Review Groups

Peer Review helps students learn how to talk about and revise writing. In this collaborative learning environment, students take turns reading each other's work, commenting on structure, punctuation, word choice, and overall coherence. After the Peer Review session, students use their classmates' comments along with their own ideas to revise their written work.

Literacy Standards In Action

We've mapped our literacy lessons and reading, speaking, and writing skills to state standards, Common Core, and NGSS. The standards are "the what" to teach. Our lessons are "the how" to meet the expectations defined by the standards. Click on the links below to view our quick reference table that maps standards to literacy lessons.
