Friday, December 13, 2024
Texas school districts are now eligible to receive additional funding for approved curriculum
PARAMUS, N.J., Dec. 5, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Savvas Learning Company, a next-generation K-12 learning solutions leader, is pleased to announce that its Texas myView Literacy has been approved by the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE) for inclusion on the state's new list of high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) for K-5 English language arts and reading and Spanish language arts and reading.
Combining powerful Science of Reading-based instruction with engaging student-centered practice opportunities, Texas myView Literacy is a full-subject (core), evidence-based instructional program for grades K-5 designed to develop strong readers and writers. Savvas developed its Texas-specific myView Literacy, which is also available in Spanish as miVisión Lectura, to support educators and improve student academic outcomes while also aligning with all of the state's educational standards, known as the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) with phonics components included.
Texas myView Literacy was approved as part of the Texas SBOE's inaugural Instructional Materials Review and Approval (IMRA) process, which provided for a rigorous review and public comment period to ensure approved materials align with state standards and meet the needs of Texas students and teachers. As an approved resource for school districts across the state, Texas myView Literacy has been deemed a "high-quality instructional material" (HQIM), enabling school districts to receive additional state funding for its purchase.
"At Savvas, we take great pride in developing the highest quality, most innovative learning solutions. We appreciate that after completing a comprehensive evaluation, Texas education officials recognized myView Literacy as a high-quality instructional material approved for use in Texas classrooms," said Bethlam Forsa, CEO of Savvas Learning Company. "Educators in Texas can have confidence that myView Literacy not only demonstrates both efficacy and a positive impact on student achievement but also provides teachers the training and support they need to successfully implement the curriculum."
Designed by leading literacy scholars and authors and firmly grounded in the Science of Reading, Texas myView Literacy features daily explicit and systematic foundational-skills instruction that follows an easy-to-teach sequence proven to increase reading achievement and close learning gaps. The program covers each of the key concepts for an effective foundational reading program: phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension.
The interactive learning solution, delivered on the award-winning Savvas Realize learning management system, provides a set of connected digital as well as print resources that help educators establish instructional routines, save planning time, and prioritize student achievement. In addition to providing exciting authentic literature, Texas myView Literacy offers a wealth of high-quality resources and features, including:
-- An Integrated Approach to Reading and Writing, which offers educators a
comprehensive system for explicit foundational skills-instruction and
meaningful practice activities that help students showcase their
learning.
-- A Student-Centered Experience that increases engagement and learning
with resources, like knowledge-building videos, games, and multi-sensory
activities.
-- Built-in Teacher Training and Support, which provides integrated
professional learning, robust planning tools, and differentiated
instruction for multilingual learners to give educators what they need
to help all students achieve.
-- Data-Driven Insights and Progress Monitoring, provided by a suite of
dynamic assessment tools, that empower teachers to monitor student
growth, identify skills gaps, and transform data into engaging
instruction.
