12th Grade Report Overview

Pearson Literature 2015 Grade 12 do not meet expectations of alignment. Texts are of quality and reflect the distribution of text types and genres. Some texts do not meet the criteria of text complexity. Anchor and supporting texts provide some opportunity for students to engage in a range and volume of reading. Materials partially meet the criteria to provide opportunities for rich and rigorous evidence-based discussions and writing about texts to build strong literacy skills. While the materials provide some opportunity for discussions, there is inconsistent guidance and support for use of protocols. The instructional materials for Grade 12 partially meet the expectations of Gateway 2. While most texts are organized around topics and themes, the materials contain few sets of questions and tasks that require students to analyze the language, key ideas, details, craft, and structure of these texts.The materials partially support building students' knowledge and academic vocabulary as students are presented with critical reading, writing, and speaking and listening work to prepare them for end -of-grade level work.
