Glencoe/McGraw-Hill, the leading provider of print and digital educational materials for middle and secondary students, is helping literature teachers easily and effectively differentiate instruction through its interactive worktexts, Read and Write.
Read and Write is a component of Glencoe Literature, a comprehensive collection of exceptional literature and engaging nonfiction with integrated skill development and targeted differentiated instruction for Grades 6-12.
Providing true differentiated instruction that is easy to implement, Read and Write offers three versions of worktexts to meet the individual learning needs of students -- on-level, approaching and English language learners. The worktext selections include the same authentic literature as found in the basal text, but offer online instructional assistance targeted to different levels of learners.
"Differentiated instruction is so critical in today's classroom, but is often a challenge to implement," said Steve McClung, president of School Solutions Group, which includes Glencoe. "By providing consistent content with appropriate instruction for varying levels, Read and Write helps teachers more easily target the specific needs of a variety of learners in one classroom."
