We’re excited to announce the release of a comprehensive guide designed to help educators review high-quality instructional materials (HQIM) for alignment to research on code-focused instruction in kindergarten and first grade. The tool is related to our recent report on the alignment of kindergarten and first-grade HQIM with research on code-focused instruction. It offers educators a user-friendly approach for reviewing their materials as they make curricular decisions.
Learn what to look for and how it relates to established recommendations. Use the guide alongside other critical considerations like state standards and student literacy data.
