9th Grade Report Overview

The instructional materials for Grade 9 partially meet the expectations of alignment. Discrete standards and skills instruction and practice are mostly present, providing students opportunities to practice reading closely, writing and speaking in different modes, and demonstrating comprehension. Texts included over the course of the year are high quality and appropriately rigorous, and provide some opportunity for students to build knowledge of topics and themes. The materials partially support this knowledge building consistently, and the teacher may have to supplement to give more time and practice on  deep vocabulary and integrated skills practice.
