Using a unique embedded assessment plan along with a balanced blend of literature and content readings, Milestones ensures that students are mastering skills and standards before being introduced to new skills and standards. This consistent, research-based approach will lead your students to success on state exams as well as to the language acquisition and content knowledge crucial for academic success. Embedded assessment helps catch small problems with skills and standards before they grow. Academic vocabulary instruction, practice, and assessment prepares students for classroom success and state examinations. Differentiated instruction for every reading selection through adapted readings, point-of-use-suggestions, and multilevel questioning strategies ensures access for all students. Complete remediation support through MilestonesTracker and ExamView provides standards-aligned reviews, practice activities, and assessments for all unmastered skills and standards.
