Introduction This document demonstrates the high degree of success students will achieve when using Scott Foresman Reading in meeting the objectives of the Missouri Communication Arts Grade-Level Expectations. Correlation references are to the Teacher Edition and associated Pupil Edition pages.

Reading First Scott Foresman Reading is a comprehensive, scientifically based reading program that aligns to the five critical areas of instruction identified by Reading First: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Fluency, Vocabulary, and Text Comprehension. Scott Foresman is proud to introduce a totally new and systematic reading program for Kindergarten through Grade Six. The goal of the program is to develop independent readers, articulate writers and speakers, and discerning listeners and viewers. Four elements— literature, phonics, accountability, and management all link to every teacher's number one classroom goal of reading independence for every student. Reading independence is at the heart of instruction and the heart of Scott Foresman Reading. Literature Systematically sequenced literature takes into account where children are and where they need to go. A rich variety of genres includes a balance of fiction and informational texts. All selections have been carefully chosen based on a scope and sequence that aligns with national assessments, state guidelines, and research-based criteria. Phonics and Comprehension At every grade, Scott Foresman Reading provides the phonics and comprehension support needed to develop successful, fluent, and independent readers. In grades one and two, the emphasis is on learning to read; phonics stories and literature selections are paired in the pupil editions to teach and practice new phonics skills and vocabulary and to improve comprehension. Phonics routines offer a proven sequence of best practices for teaching children to decode. A wealth of multisensory phonics materials invites children to interact and experiment with words, language, and sounds. In grades three through six, phonics instruction continues, and the major emphasis is on reading to learn. Main selections and paired selections each week teach and practice comprehension skills and vital test-taking skills. Accountability Teachers hold themselves accountable every day. Scott Foresman Reading is designed to help teachers achieve the goal of making every child a successful reader. Critical target skills are taught at least three times before testing. Ongoing assessment in every lesson drives instruction. Skills lessons in the pupil editions in grades three through six focus on critical vocabulary and comprehension skills. An assessment handbook offers effective tools to diagnose, measure, and record student progress. The program also provides a complete assessment system, a full range of tools to inform instruction. Management Scott Foresman Reading adds depth to teaching and ease to planning with research-based classroom routines that provide strong management tools and best practices for building independent readers. Classroom routines, environmental routines, student routines, and school/home routines offer effective management tools, best practices, and research-proven methods.
