ReadTheory worked with ELA specialists to craft 8 weeks worth of high-quality materials that are user-friendly, fun, highly adaptable, and entirely standards-based. The topics for these lessons were chosen because they're all areas where students most often need additional support. With these lessons, your students will be set up for success. Everything you'll need for the week, from the PowerPoints, to the handouts, to the teacher notes, to the assessment, are all provided.
