This book helps Montessori educators and administrators, especially those working in publicly funded schools, address state legislation requiring approved curriculum aligned to the science of reading.

From the authors of Powerful Literacy in the Montessori Classroom, this new book focuses on the practical implementation of Montessori teaching and assessment methods in pre-K-6th grade classrooms. The authors describe how reading research and Montessori's scientific pedagogy and language curriculum play out in actual classrooms through concrete examples of structured literacy instruction.

Using the timeline of a typical school year as a framework, the book contains three primary sections: (1) Starting the School Year: Setting the Stage So Reading Improves for Every Student; (2) All School Year Long: Integrating Data, Progress Monitoring, and Instruction to Maximize Reading Success for All Students; and (3) Wrapping Up the School Year: Prioritizing, Keeping On, and Defining Next Steps. Each section contains an overview of current research and theory to inform assessments and literacy goals prioritized at these key points across the academic year. Chapters feature activities, assessments, and case studies adapted from diverse Montessori classrooms.
