McGraw-Hill Releases K-6 Common Core Reading Intervention

McGraw-Hill Education has released a K-6 reading intervention focused on Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts.

Reading WonderWorks is a hybrid print and digital tool designed to help underperforming students "develop critical reading, writing and analytical skills required by the rigorous new standards so that they can accelerate through the curriculum and read on grade level by the following year," according to McGraw-Hill. The suite integrates with McGraw-Hill's Reading Wonders via a digital platform that provides teachers with shared resources and lesson plans. It also includes Foundational Skills Kits and an assessment tool, Reading Wonders Adaptive Learning, co-developed with ed tech company Area9.

Reading WonderWorks is available now. Complete details can be found on McGraw-Hill's Reading Wonders site.
