Report Overview
Overview
The Benchmark Advance 2021 materials partially meet the expectations of alignment. Questions and tasks promote students' learning in reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language, although the materials will need supplementing to support students' knowledge building. Texts are of differing quality but are appropriately rigorous and include genres and types required by the standards. Foundational skills instruction meets expectations (Grades K-5).
