Gateway Ratings Summary
ELA 1st Grade Overview
The instructional materials for Reading Wonders Grade 1 partially meet expectations of alignment. The Grade 1 instructional materials meet expectations for Gateway 1. Texts are worthy of students' time and attention. Text selections are appropriately rigorous but only partially support students building their ability to access texts with increasing text complexity across the year. The materials provide opportunities for rich and rigorous evidence-based discussions and writing about texts to build strong literacy skills but limited opportunities for opinion writing. The materials support students' literacy development with foundational skills. The instructional materials for Grade 1 partially meet the expectations of Gateway 2. There is some support for building students' knowledge and academic vocabulary, but consistent guidance and focus in these areas does not appear over the course of the year. The materials provide some planning for academic vocabulary and writing development although the teacher may need to engage in additional planning to ensure the schedule can accommodate the intended lesson sequences.
