We really like the Measuring Up materials. Our initial TAKS scores show 95% in Reading and 94% in Math. We also were 96% in Science and 97% in Writing. We believe the measuring materials were a major factor in our good reading and math scores.

Critical Reading: Differentiated Instruction Across Genres
Move students beyond basic comprehension to literary analysis and inferential comprehension
Critical Reading offers the explicit instruction and practice opportunities students need to move beyond basic comprehension to literary analysis and inferential comprehension—to "read between the lines"— of all kinds of fiction and nonfiction genres. Eight stand-alone, individual student units at each level focus on one major critical reading strategy.
Critical Reading:
Allows fast, flexible use with individual consumable student units for each strategy
Ensures mastery with scaffolded instruction and plenty of practice
Builds oral reading fluency through modeling and practice
Supports differentiated instruction with assessments that resemble state tests
Saves time and effort and supports English Language Learners with annotated, wraparound Teacher Edition and online assessment
