Reading First Approved
Supplemental List! SIPPS grades KMaking Meaning (Comprehension) K-3
Making Meaning K-8
The Making Meaning program uses Read-aloud books that have been
carefully chosen to explicitly teach the comprehension strategies
known to be used by good readers. The program is a yearlong, K-8
curriculum that teaches students to make sense of text and to be
responsible partners who can support their own opinions and
appreciate and respect the ideas of others.
Want to improve student writing and increase students’ passion
to write? Being a Writer from Developmental Studies Center, can do
that!
New! Being a Writer
The program is a yearlong curriculum for grades K-5 that offers two
goals for age-appropriate instruction at each grade level. Being a
Writer uses Trade books for genre immersion and author studies, the
writing process to empower student authorship, topic selection and
peer conferring to develop writing.
- Used with a
reading basal program: The Being a Writer program is stand alone
writing program that can replace or supplement the writing
component of any basal series. Unlike many language arts
programs that often separate grammar, usage, and punctuation
from the real act of writing. Being a Writer teaches these
skills using students’ own writing, after they have had ample
time to draft their ideas, along with authentic literature as
writing models.
- Writer’s
Workshop: Being a Writer is inspired in part by the writer’s
workshop concept that has been adopted by many schools. The
process of writing is not only choosing a topic, creating a
draft, sharing and revising, but also learning the craft of
experienced authors who develop an idea or tell a story.
- What’s
Taught? Writing craft and genre study:
