Now there's a way to blend balanced literacy and formative assessment. This book infuses research-based best practices of formative assessment through the lens of Common Core, with assessment support in these areas: read-alouds, guided language into reading, language and literacy centers, word walls to language walls, in-school libraries, and independent reading and writing. It also includes the ÒhowÓ for novice and veteran K-8 teachers, administrators, and school literacy teams. Resources are included to help educators collect information and provide feedback to students.
