This professional resource supports teachers with the knowledge and tools they need to elevate literacy instruction and evaluate student achievement.
Elevate & Evaluate is packed with professional development materials for elevating teacher knowledge, a full suite of easy-to-use assessments for evaluating student knowledge, and clear evidence of efficacy for Joy Allcock’s speech-to-sounds-to-print approach for teaching the code and structure of written English.
