Differentiated Instruction. Accelerated Learning.
Accelerating Literacy Gains for All Learners
Students of every age and ability build close-reading and comprehension skills with engaging nonfiction informational text
Reach All Learners in Core English Language Arts Classes
Across all demographics, students using Achieve3000®’s patented literacy solutions with the highest fidelity* exceeded their expected Lexile® reading growth by an average of 174 points, attaining over 3X the growth that was expected. Achieve3000’s Pro literacy solutions (KidBizPro® for grades 2-5, TeenBizPro® for grades 6-8, and EmpowerPro® for grades 9-12) are uniquely designed to meet the needs of classrooms with a diverse mix of student abilities and needs: every student in class reads the same grade-appropriate content differentiated at their individual reading level, empowering all students to fully participate in whole-class instruction and discussions.
With deeply differentiated instruction, an adaptive content system that integrates ongoing assessment with engaging nonfiction content and robust scaffolds, and linguistic supports for struggling readers and English language learners, Pro accelerates learning gains and empowers all students to build critical college and career literacy skills.
Rise to the Challenge of Complex Informational Texts
Here’s how Pro works: Students take an initial placement assessment that pinpoints their individual Lexile® reading level. With this data, your state edition of Pro differentiates the same lesson at 12 levels of English and 7 levels of Spanish with classroom-tested scaffolds, like text-to-speech audio, to meet the precise needs of every learner. As students complete lessons, Pro’s proprietary technology monitors their performance and automatically adapts when a student is ready for greater text complexity – a combination that’s proven to accelerate learning.
Teachers are empowered to further accelerate literacy gains by following students’ independent work with direct instruction around the Stretch Article, an unprecedented opportunity for students to interact with a version of the same lesson written at grade-appropriate text complexity. When combined with Achieve3000’s standards-aligned curriculum – which can be customized to align with your reading program, scope and sequence, or pacing guides – this patented and proven methodology also accelerates mastery of state standards, raises performance on high-stakes tests, and prepares all learners for the challenges of college and career.
The Exclusive Achieve3000 Five-Step Literacy Routine
Students need daily practice with text at their independent reading level to develop reading strategies and to provide access to grade-level content. Achieve3000’s exclusive 5-Step Literacy Routine is designed to build the skills for close reading of informational text with the explicit purpose of finding the evidence necessary to respond to a written prompt. Students begin the routine by working with text at their independent reading level. While reading, they identify and incorporate evidence needed for a response to a Thought Question using Achieve3000’s Reading Connections and digital highlighting tool to annotate text. Research shows that when students complete on average two lessons per week, they can expect to more than double their expected Lexile gains, accelerating their readiness for high-stakes assessments.
Achieve3000 Bonus Lessons: Unmatched Practice for High-Stakes Tests
Achieve3000’s exclusive Bonus lessons are built to provide greater depths of knowledge, giving students the critical practice they need for assessment success. Designed to mirror the rigor of your state assessment, Bonus Lessons engage students in longer readings at their individual Lexile levels. This helps students build their stamina for reading text with higher word counts. Additionally, these lessons prepare students to interact with different sources of information like those they will encounter on the state test. With text-based selections as a starting point, Bonus lessons include alternate forms of information, including graphs, charts, timelines, and maps. All lessons in Achieve3000 are aligned to your state standards so teachers and administrators can forecast student readiness as they approach test day.
