Kindergarten Report Overview

The materials for Kindergarten meet the expectations of alignment, including instruction and practice to develop skills and understanding. The materials include high quality texts and tasks that support students' development of literacy skills in reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language. The materials are organized to build knowledge of topics and provide opportunities for students to demonstrate integrated skills, although the organization of texts may need revision to support consistent beginning-to-end of year comprehension development. Instruction for foundational skills includes the core components necessary. While many implementation supports are available, the teacher may need to do extra work to assure lessons are implemented with fidelity.
