Response to Instructional Strategies and Interventions: Scenarios for K–12 Educators teaches practitioners how to select and implement intervention strategies for students in multiple tiers of academic performance, including English Language Learners, special education students, and gifted students. Linda Gregg has a practical perspective to address the national call for schools to focus on quality instruction and intervention for all students. She skillfully dispels myths and misconceptions while keeping her eye firmly on the student.

Performance assessment is a form of testing that requires students to perform a task rather than select an answer from a ready-made list, e.g., a student may be asked to explain historical events, generate scientific hypotheses, or solve math problems. Engaging Students Through Performance Assessment is a "how-to" for teachers create performance assessments, score performance assessments, and use performance assessments to improve student instruction

Common Core State Standards (CCSS) bring state curricula into alignment with each other by following the principles of standards-based education reform. The big idea behind CCSS is to, "provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them." Navigating Implementation of the Common Core State Standards, the first of a four book series, provides background on CCSS and helps create a plan to implement the standards

Most states have adopted the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) as the basis for evaluating their students. This handbook will help teachers and administrators sort through the English Language Arts standards and focus on the key components of the CCSS. This is the second of a four-book series that started with Navigating Implementation of CCSS. The third handbook is Navigating Mathematics CCSS and the fourth is Navigating Assessment and Collaboration with the CCSS.

Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for mathematics are rigorous. Now that most states have accepted the CCSS, they need to first understand the CCSS and then design a way to implement the CCSS in mathematics. This third title in series discusses the rigor of the standards; reviews learning progressions; defines practice standards, and focuses on developing mathematical problems to create higher math development. Volume one is Navigating Implementation, volume two is English Language Arts and volume four is Assessment and Collaboration.

School districts are implementing the Rigorous Curriculum Design (RCD) process to redesign their curricula to prepare students for success on the coming Common Core national assessments. Each chapter of Getting Started With Rigorous Curriculum Design will provide educators with “collective wisdom” — insights and ideas to enrich and expand understandings they may not have yet come to on their own. The RCD framework is a clearly laid out, step-by-step process that is welcomed by educators for its linearity. It begins with five foundational steps: Prioritize the Common Core State Standards; Name the Units of Study; Assign the Standards to the Units—Priority and Supporting; Prepare a Yearlong Pacing Calendar; Create the Unit Planning Organizer.
