What our partners say…

Schools using Reading Mastery (Rainbow Edition) will find SRA's book, Science and Social Studies in Reading Mastery, a useful tool in identifying which science and social studies content are covered in each level of the program. The topics, organized by subject area, are also listed with the lesson the content was originally presented in. You can find this resource by visiting our Links page or on McGraw-Hill's website. Once there, click on "Learn More" and then on "Resources for Users". The document is divided up by levels for easy retrieval by teachers.

It is important to note that although the resource is listed on the page for Reading Mastery Plus, it is not applicable to Plus or Signature series texts, as there were significant revisions between the Rainbow Edition and subsequent editions. Not using Rainbow Edition? Not to worry! When updated versions are available for more current editions, we will be sure to alert you! The document used to be provided by SRA as a free resource for teachers, but McGraw-Hill no longer publishes this book, so you'll only find it online!

Implementing Direct Instruction Successfully

When implemented fully, Direct Instruction (DI) is unparalleled in its ability to improve student performance and enhance students’ self-esteem. In order to implement DI effectively, much more is required than simply purchasing instructional materials. The following two-part tutorial guides administrators, teachers, and coaches through the key features of a successful DI implementation. Part I provides an overview of the steps schools need to take in preparation for a DI implementation before school starts, while Part II provides an overview of the steps schools need to take after school has started.

IMPORTANT: This tutorial is an intensive video series comprised of 18 segments, each followed by a series of questions. Users should allow approximately three hours to watch the videos and complete the questions. NIFDI recognizes the high demand for time placed on school officials and, for this reason, has structured the tutorial so users may stop at any time and later resume where they left off.
