Program Organization
ReadyGEN is organized around unit modules (six units in grades K-2; four units in grades 3-
5) with a focus on standards-based topics. Text sets, comprised of full length and shorter
authentic pieces of literary and informational trade books and texts, are used to build
knowledge around these topics for sustained periods of time. All texts are aligned to the
complexity requirements outlined in the Common Core Standards, ensuring that all students
interact with appropriate grade-level texts. Teachers will also have access to a variety of
scaffolded strategies to help support all learners.

Features and Benefits
Ready to Learn
ReadyGEN actively engages children in literacy experiences, with authentic, rigorous texts
serving as the core of all instruction. These texts serve as the springboard into the
exploration of language, literacy, and collaboration.
ReadyGEN is the only elementary literacy program that puts a library of 12
authentic trade books in the hands of every child.
Kindergarten teachers will receive one set of 12 titles to be read aloud to students.
NEW! Digital access to every trade book presents a unique 1:1 learning opportunity
and a shift in students’ behavior from passive to active learning.
Ready to Teach
The design principle of backward mapping is used to ensure that activities are explicitly linked
to and driven by targeted standards. Text-based instruction has been developed to enable
students to acquire Enduring Understandings about the ways in which reading, writing, and
learning deepen knowledge and insight of the world. These consistent features and
architecture are found throughout ReadyGEN leading to an ever-increasing articulation of
sophistication across modules, units, and grades.
ReadyGEN instruction is routines-based, allowing for consistency and internalization of
strategies by teachers and students. Freddy Hiebert and P. David Pearson’s Generative
Vocabulary approach and corresponding routines make visible to students critical functions
and features of words and connections among words. By teaching vocabulary in clusters of
ideas rather than in isolation, it allows students to generate and learn many more words.
Writing instructional routines always encourage the reciprocity between reading and writing
to promote student thinking and understanding through text- based evidence. All writing and
vocabulary instruction is done within the context of reading the topically- related text sets—
reading multiple times for specific purposes to build close reading and higher order thinking
skills. This cohesive and comprehensive curriculum ensures a ready-made suite of
resources, so teachers can spend less time creating lessons and more time teaching.
*Grade 6 will be available for the 2016-17 school year. ReadyGEN©2016
Ready to Soar
We know all children come to school with different backgrounds and skills, and some need
more support than others in meeting these heightened expectations. The ReadyGEN
Teacher’s Guide suggestions pinpoint aspects of the text or instruction where stumbling
blocks might occur and provides strategies to mediate these difficulties.
NEW! Interactive Close Reading Support and Lesson Modeling Videos will allow all students,
including ELLs, struggling readers, and accelerated learners, to successfully participate in
and progress through the daily lesson with their peers.
For those students who would benefit from even more support, the Scaffolded Strategies
Handbook provides scaffolded instruction, useful strategies, and practical routines in
accessing text as well as writing. Under the guidance of program author, Sharon Vaughn, the
Scaffolded Strategies Handbook offers data-driven differentiation so students receive the
personal attention they deserve.
ReadyGEN’s comprehensive assessment system puts students on the path to Next
Generation Assessment success:
A Baseline Assessment guides teachers on areas where students may struggle
while trying to access complex texts and apply standards. Instruction will directly tie
to the scaffolds that are provided as part of each module in the Scaffolded Strategies
Handbook
Formative checkpoints throughout instruction allow teachers to adjust how they
are strategically intervening with students.
Backwards Mapping ensures deep and transferable understanding of Big Ideas,
Enduring Understandings, and Essential Questions; the Performance-Based
Assessment at the end of each module is the engine that drives all tasks and
promotes positive outcomes by allowing students to connect their learning through
reading, writing, and exploring text.
Access to Technology-Enhanced Items (TEIs) lead to deeper student
understanding and increased student responsibilities
Summative, End-of-Unit Assessments allow teachers to assess student progress
in reading, vocabulary analysis, and writing
*Grade 6 will be available for the 2016-17 school year. ReadyGEN©2016
The Baseline and End of Unit Assessment can be administered online. Teachers may also
build their own multiple-choice and gridded-response assessments online using teacher-
created items.
NEW! Technology-Enhanced Items (TEIs) will appear on the:
Baseline Assessment (Grades 2-5)
All End-of-Unit Assessments
Foundational Skills Instruction
NEW! Phonics (K-3) and Word Analysis (4-5) lessons will be integrated into ReadyGEN
instruction; this instruction had previously lived outside of the core offering in a separate
Teacher’s Guide, but will now appear in the back of every ReadyGEN Teacher’s Guide.
Every lesson follows a systematic approach and integrates phonemic awareness, phonics,
and fluency, into daily instructional routines. Foundational skills instruction was designed to
work in whole and small group settings, and we recommend that teachers allocate 20-30
minutes of their reading block to teaching these skills.
Additional Resources:
Picture Word Cards (K-3) Alphabet Cards (K-3)
Letter Tiles (K-3) Phonics Activity Mats (K-3)
High-Frequency Words Cards (K-1)

Leveled Text Library
The Leveled Text Library includes 60 topically-related texts at each grade (10 titles per unit
in Grades K-2 and 15 titles per Unit in Grades 3-5; 6 copies each) aligned to the ReadyGEN
Essential Question and Enduring Understandings. Teachers are encouraged to use the
leveled texts in combination with their classroom instruction to help students develop self-
extending reading and thinking strategies. Leveled texts are ideal for small group or
